Ingredients
Scale
Salmon
- 4 salmon fillets (6 oz each)
Bang Bang Sauce
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons sriracha
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
Garnish
- 2 green onions, thinly sliced
Instructions
- Preheat the Broiler: Set your oven’s broiler to high and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prepare for cooking the salmon.
- Make the Bang Bang Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sriracha, honey, rice vinegar, and soy sauce until well combined. Stir in the sesame oil to finish the sauce.
- Prepare the Salmon: Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Generously brush the bang bang sauce on both sides of each fillet, ensuring full coverage for maximum flavor.
- Broil the Salmon: Place the baking sheet under the broiler and cook the salmon for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Watch carefully to avoid burning the sauce.
- Garnish and Serve: Remove the salmon from the oven, sprinkle with the thinly sliced green onions for freshness and crunch, and serve immediately while hot.
Notes
- Keep a close watch on the salmon while broiling to prevent burning due to the sugar in the sauce.
- For a spicier kick, add more sriracha or serve extra on the side.
- This dish pairs well with steamed rice or a light salad for a balanced meal.
- To ensure even cooking, try to use similar-sized salmon fillets.
