Here is a recipe for Crispy Bang Bang Salmon Bites :
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 pounds salmon fillets (skin removed, cut into bite-sized pieces)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
For the Bang Bang Sauce:
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons sweet chili sauce
- 1 tablespoon sriracha sauce (adjust based on your desired spice level)
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
- A pinch of salt
Instructions:
-
Prepare the Salmon Bites: Begin by cutting the salmon fillets into bite-sized pieces, ensuring that the skin is removed. Pat the pieces dry with a paper towel to remove any excess moisture. This will help achieve a crispier texture when cooked.
-
Season the Salmon: In a small bowl, mix together the garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Drizzle the olive oil over the salmon pieces and toss to coat. Then sprinkle the seasoning mix over the salmon and toss again to ensure each piece is evenly coated with the spices.
-
Cook the Salmon: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the skillet is hot, add the seasoned salmon pieces in a single layer. Cook for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until the salmon is golden brown on the outside and cooked through on the inside. Be careful not to overcook the salmon to keep it tender and moist. Once cooked, remove the salmon from the pan and set it aside.
-
Prepare the Bang Bang Sauce: While the salmon is cooking, mix together the mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, sriracha sauce, honey, rice vinegar, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl. Whisk the ingredients together until the sauce is smooth and well-combined. Adjust the sriracha sauce to your preferred spice level.
-
Toss the Salmon Bites: Place the cooked salmon pieces in a large bowl. Pour the Bang Bang sauce over the salmon and gently toss to coat each piece evenly with the sauce.
-
Serve: Transfer the crispy Bang Bang salmon bites to a serving platter. You can garnish with chopped green onions, sesame seeds, or cilantro if desired. Serve them immediately with your favorite side dishes, such as steamed rice, veggies, or a fresh salad.
These Crispy Bang Bang Salmon Bites are flavorful and crispy on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside, with a deliciously spicy-sweet Bang Bang sauce. Enjoy!
