Bang Bang Salmon Bites are crispy, flavorful bites of salmon coated in a spicy sauce. They make a great appetizer or main dish.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb salmon fillet (skinless, cut into bite-sized pieces)
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper (to taste)
- 1 large egg (beaten)
- Vegetable oil (for frying)
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons sweet chili sauce
- 1 tablespoon sriracha (adjust to taste)
- 1 teaspoon lime juice
- 1 teaspoon honey (optional)
Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, sriracha, lime juice, and honey (if using). Mix well and set aside.
- In a shallow dish, combine the flour, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
- In one bowl, place the beaten egg, and in another bowl, add the panko breadcrumbs.
- Dip each salmon piece into the seasoned flour, shaking off excess. Then dip it into the beaten egg, and finally coat it with panko breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.
- In a large skillet, heat about 1/4 inch of vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
- Once the oil is hot, carefully add the breaded salmon bites in batches. Fry for about 2–3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels.
- In a large bowl, add the fried salmon bites and drizzle with the Bang Bang sauce. Gently toss to coat the salmon evenly.
- Serve immediately, garnished with chopped green onions or sesame seeds if desired.
- Enjoy your flavorful Bang Bang Salmon Bites as an appetizer or main dish.
Notes
- Adjust the spiciness of the sauce by varying the amount of sriracha.
