# How to Make It:
01 -
Cut the salmon fillet into uniform bite-sized pieces and pat dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
02 -
Arrange flour in one shallow bowl, beaten eggs in a second, and panko breadcrumbs in a third.
03 -
Season the salmon cubes evenly with salt and black pepper. Dredge each piece in flour, dip in beaten egg, then coat thoroughly with panko breadcrumbs.
04 -
For frying: Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Fry salmon for 2 to 3 minutes per side until golden and crisp, then transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. For air frying: Preheat air fryer to 400°F. Arrange coated salmon pieces in a single layer and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until crisp.
05 -
In a bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, sriracha, honey, and lemon juice until smooth.
06 -
Toss the cooked salmon bites lightly in the Bang Bang sauce or provide the sauce on the side for dipping. Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds if desired.
# Extra Tips:
01 -
For a balanced meal, serve salmon bites over steamed rice and fresh avocado; air frying reduces oil for a lighter option.
