Scale
  • 1 lb fresh salmon, skinless and cut into bite-sized cubes
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1 tbsp olive oil (or light spray)
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tbsp sweet chili sauce
  • 1 tbsp sriracha (to taste)
  • 1 tsp honey (optional)

  • 2 cups cooked jasmine rice or cauliflower rice
  • 1 cup shredded purple cabbage
  • 1 avocado, sliced

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (or air fryer to 400°F).
  2. Pat the salmon cubes dry and toss with garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
  3. Coat salmon cubes lightly with olive oil and then press into panko breadcrumbs.
  4. Arrange salmon bites on a baking sheet lined with parchment.
  5. Bake for 12 to 14 minutes (or air-fry for 10 to 12 minutes) until golden and cooked through.
  6. Whisk together mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, sriracha, honey, and lime juice to make the sauce.
  7. In bowls, place jasmine rice, shredded cabbage, and carrots, top with salmon bites, and drizzle with Bang Bang sauce. Garnish with avocado, green onions, cilantro, and sesame seeds.

Notes

Pat salmon dry for extra crispiness. For a low-carb option, use cauliflower rice and omit honey.
