  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper

Method
 

Cooking Instructions
  1. Preheat the air fryer to 390°F.
  2. In a large bowl, combine olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  3. Add salmon bites and gently toss to coat.
  4. In a separate bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Thai sweet chili sauce, Sriracha, and honey. Mix well.
  5. Pour half of the Bang Bang sauce into a separate bowl, reserving it for after the salmon has been cooked. Toss the seasoned salmon bites in the remaining sauce.
  6. Working in batches, place the salmon bites in an even layer in the basket of your air fryer. Air fry for 4-5 minutes. Flip and cook 4-5 minutes more on the opposite side, or until the salmon reaches an internal temperature of 140-145°F.
  7. Transfer the salmon to a plate and drizzle with the reserved bang bang sauce.
  8. Garnish with chives.
