How to Make Bang Bang Salmon Bites Bowls

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) or set your air fryer to 390°F (200°C).
  • Toss your fresh salmon cubes with garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
  • Coat each salmon piece with panko breadcrumbs and spray lightly with olive oil.
  • Place the breaded salmon bites in the oven or air fryer for about 12 minutes.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, sriracha, lime juice, and honey.

  • Drizzle the Bang Bang sauce generously over the top and garnish with green onions, cilantro, and sesame seeds.
