Instructions
Creating the amazing Bang Bang Salmon in just 15 minutes can be straightforward when following these easy steps:
1. Preparation: Begin by patting the salmon fillets dry with paper towels. This will help the salmon sear nicely.
2. Seasoning: Season both sides of the salmon fillets with salt and pepper to enhance their flavor.
3. Heat the Pan: In a non-stick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.
4. Sear the Salmon: Add the salmon fillets to the skillet, skin-side down if applicable, and cook for about 4-5 minutes without moving them. This will allow a nice crust to form.
5. Flip the Fillets: Carefully flip the salmon over and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes or until cooked through and flaky.
6. Prepare the Sauce: In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, sriracha, and garlic powder. Stir until well combined.
7. Serve with Sauce: Once the salmon is cooked, remove it from the skillet and drizzle the Bang Bang sauce generously over each fillet.
8. Garnish: Top with chopped green onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds for added crunch and flavor.
9. Plate the Dish: Place the salmon on a serving plate or individual plates, ready to be enjoyed.
