Step-by-Step Instructions for Crispy Bang Bang Salmon Bites
  1. Cut fresh salmon fillets into 1 to 1.5-inch cubes and pat them dry with a paper towel.
  2. Prepare three shallow bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with panko mixed with seasonings.
  3. Coat each salmon cube in flour, dip into beaten eggs, and then roll in the panko mixture.
  4. In a large skillet, heat about 1 inch of vegetable oil over medium heat until it's ready.
  5. Carefully place the breaded salmon pieces into the hot oil and fry for 2-3 minutes per side until golden.
  6. In a bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, sriracha, honey, and lime juice for the sauce.
  7. Arrange the salmon bites on a platter and drizzle with the bang bang sauce. Garnish with parsley or green onions.
