For the Salmon Bites:

- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour

Instructions
Preparing the Salmon Bites
- Preheat Your Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly spray it with cooking oil.
- Bread the Salmon: Season the salmon pieces with salt and pepper. Set up your breading station with three bowls—one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with panko breadcrumbs. Dip each salmon piece first in flour, then egg, and finally coat it with panko breadcrumbs.
- Bake to Perfection: Place the breaded salmon bites on the prepared baking sheet and spray them lightly with cooking oil. Bake for about 12-15 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
Making the Bang Bang Sauce
- Mix It Up: In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, Sriracha, and honey. Stir until smooth and well combined.
Serve It Up!
- Drizzle or Dip: Once your salmon bites are ready, you can drizzle them generously with the bang bang sauce or serve it on the side as a dip.
Notes
Remember that this recipe is highly adaptable. You can try using different types of fish like cod or tilapia if you’re out of salmon. Additionally, if you’re looking for a healthier version, consider air-frying instead of baking.
