Ingredients
  

Salmon Bites
  • 1 pound skinless salmon Cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 large egg beaten
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs or crushed cornflakes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil for frying
Bang Bang Sauce
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise avoid low-fat for better flavor
  • 2 tablespoons sriracha adjust for spice level
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice freshly squeezed

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Start by cubing the salmon into roughly 1-inch pieces.
  2. Coat each piece in flour, then dip into the beaten egg, and finally coat with panko breadcrumbs.
Cooking
  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking.
  2. Fry the coated salmon cubes in batches, ensuring that each piece touches the pan and turns golden brown on all sides.
Making the Sauce
  1. In a bowl, mix together mayonnaise, sriracha, honey, and lime juice. Adjust flavors to taste.
  2. Serve the crispy salmon bites with the Bang Bang sauce on the side or drizzled on top.

Notes

For gluten-free, swap panko with gluten-free breadcrumbs. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a day; keep the sauce separate to maintain crispiness.
