Crispy bang bang salmon bites are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main dish. The salmon is coated in a crispy crust and topped with a creamy, spicy bang bang sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb fresh salmon fillet, skin removed, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • ½ cup breadcrumbs (panko recommended)
  • ¼ cup cornstarch
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • ¼ cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tbsp sweet chili sauce
  • 1 tbsp Sriracha (adjust to taste)
  • 1 tsp lime juice
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil (avocado oil works too)

Instructions

  1. In one bowl, whisk together the breadcrumbs and cornstarch.
  2. In another bowl, beat the egg until smooth.
  3. Working in batches, dip each salmon cube in the beaten egg, letting excess drip off, then roll it in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to coat. Lay them on a plate.
  4. Heat the vegetable oil in a 10-inch frying pan over medium heat until a breadcrumb sizzles on contact.
  5. Carefully add the crispy salmon bites in a single layer to the hot pan (do not overcrowd).
  6. Fry the salmon bites for 2-3 minutes per side until they are golden brown and crispy.
  7. Transfer the cooked crispy salmon to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
  8. In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, Sriracha, and lime juice to make the bang bang sauce. Taste and adjust Sriracha for desired spice.
  9. Drizzle the creamy, spicy bang bang sauce over the crispy salmon bites before serving.

Notes

  • Use the freshest salmon you can find for optimal texture and flavor.
  • Adjust the amount of Sriracha in the bang bang sauce to control the spiciness.
  • Ensure the oil is properly hot before adding the crispy salmon bites to prevent sticking and achieve maximum crispiness.
  • Serve the crispy bang bang salmon immediately for the best results, as they are at their crispiest straight from the pan.
  • Consider making a double batch of the bang bang sauce for extra dipping.
