Ingredients
  

  • For the Salmon:
  • 4 salmon fillets
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder

Method
 

  1. Pat dry the salmon fillets and brush them with olive oil. Season with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika.

  4. Drizzle the bang bang sauce over the crispy salmon and serve with rice or a fresh salad. Enjoy immediately!

Notes

  • Extra Crispy: Coat the salmon in panko breadcrumbs before air frying.
  • Lighter Version: Use Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise.
More Heat: Increase the sriracha for extra spice! 🌶️
