Ingredients
  

For the salmon bites
  • 1 pound salmon filets, cut into bite-sized pieces Fresh and boneless
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs For a delightful crunch
  • ½ cup flour For dredging
  • 1 large egg Binder to help the breading stick
  • to taste salt and pepper To season the salmon
  • 1 tablespoon paprika For added flavor
For the bang bang sauce
  • ½ cup mayonnaise Base for the sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha Adjust to taste for spiciness
  • 1 tablespoon honey Balances the heat with sweetness

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Cut the salmon filets into bite-sized pieces and season with salt, pepper, and paprika.
  2. Prepare three bowls—one with flour, one with a beaten egg, and one with panko breadcrumbs.
Breading and Cooking
  1. Dredge each piece of salmon in flour, dip it into the egg, and then coat it with panko breadcrumbs.
  2. In a large skillet, heat about 1 inch of oil over medium heat. Test readiness by dropping a breadcrumb in—if it sizzles, you’re ready to go!
  3. Carefully place the breaded salmon pieces into the hot oil in batches, frying for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.
Sauce and Serve
  1. In a bowl, mix the mayonnaise, sriracha, and honey until smooth. Adjust spice levels to your preference.
  2. Toss the cooked salmon bites in the bang bang sauce or serve it on the side for dipping. Enjoy them hot!

Notes

Use fresh salmon for the best flavor. Adjust the sauce to your liking—more honey for sweetness or extra sriracha for heat. Serve immediately for maximum crispiness.
