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

  1. Preheat Broiler: Preheat your oven’s broiler to high and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prepare for cooking the salmon.
  2. Make Bang Bang Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sriracha, honey, rice vinegar, and soy sauce until smooth. Stir in the sesame oil to blend the flavors evenly.
  3. Coat Salmon: Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Brush both sides generously with the bang bang sauce to ensure the salmon is well coated.
  4. Broil Salmon: Broil the salmon for 8 to 10 minutes, checking carefully to avoid burning. The salmon is done when it flakes easily with a fork and is cooked through.
  5. Garnish and Serve: Remove from the oven and sprinkle the sliced green onions over the top. Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.

Notes

  • Keep a close eye while broiling as the sauce contains sugar and can burn quickly.
  • Use parchment paper for easy cleanup and to prevent sticking.
  • You can adjust the sriracha amount based on your preferred spice level.
  • Salmon fillets should be about 1 inch thick for best cooking results.
  • This dish pairs well with steamed rice or a fresh green salad.
