Ingredients
  

For the salmon bites
  • 1 pound salmon (skinless) Cut into even cubes about an inch across.
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour For coating the salmon.
  • 1 large egg Beaten, for coating the salmon.
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs Can substitute with crushed cornflakes or regular breadcrumbs.
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil For frying. Other vegetable oils can be used.
For the Bang Bang sauce
  • 1/2 cup mayo Regular mayo is recommended.
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha Adjust amount for spice level.
  • 1 tablespoon honey For sweetness.
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice Adds a tangy flavor.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Start with about a pound of skinless salmon, cube it into even pieces.
  2. Coat the salmon cubes in flour, then dip them in the beaten egg, and finally coat with panko breadcrumbs, ensuring they are fully covered.
Cooking
  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking.
  2. Sauté the salmon cubes in batches, turning to ensure all sides are golden brown.
  3. While the salmon cooks, prepare the Bang Bang sauce by mixing mayo, sriracha, honey, and lime juice in a bowl. Adjust to your taste.
  4. Once the salmon bites are crispy and cooked through, place them on a plate and drizzle or dunk them in the Bang Bang sauce.

Notes

These salmon bites are best eaten fresh, but leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for about a day. Keep the sauce separate to maintain crispiness. For reheating, use an air fryer or toaster oven.
