Creator: Leslie Stokes

You guys loved my air fryer bang bang chicken and I knew that the sauce would be so yummy over salmon, but this next level! The salmon gets so crispy yet stays so juicy and tender, it pair so well with the fresh veggies and rice!

INGREDIENTS:

  • salmon 
  • paprika
  • onion powder
  • garlic powder
  • salt 
  • mayonnaise- I use avocado oil mayonnaise
  • sweet chili sauce- found in the asian section at the grocery store 
  • sriracha 
  • honey 
  • rice
  • shredded cabbage
  • shredded carrots
  • cucumbers

Can I make this in the oven?

 

– YES! I would follow up all of the same steps, but add it to a sheet pan and cook it at 425 degrees on the top rack for 15ish minutes.

 

Where can I find the silicone air fryer basket you used?

 

I absolutely love this basket for any recipe that can get messy and since this recipe has a sauce I highly suggest using one!
