Ingredients for Honey Sriracha Salmon Bites
The Essentials:
~1 lb fresh salmon, cut into bite-sized cubes
1 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp sriracha (more if you're brave)
1.5 tbsp honey
1 clove garlic (minced) or 1/2 tsp Watkins Organic Garlic Powder
1 tbsp oil (any kind)
1 tbsp cornstarch or flour (to crisp it up)
The Watkins Upgrade:
Instructions: Air Fryer Salmon Bites
Marinate That Fish! In a bowl, mix soy sauce, sriracha, honey, garlic, and oil. Add salmon cubes and toss to coat. Season with Watkins Mediterranean Sea Salt and Watkins Black Pepper. Let it chill for 10–15 minutes.
Get Crispy. Sprinkle the cornstarch over your marinated salmon and toss gently. This step gives that irresistible crispy coating. Lightly oil your air fryer basket.
Air Fry to Glory. Place salmon cubes in a single layer—no overlapping, please! Air fry at 400°F (200°C) for 6-8 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through. You want golden edges and juicy centers.
Garnish & Serve. After air-frying, sprinkle with Watkins Organic Sesame Seeds and an extra dash of salt and pepper, if desired. Optional: add chopped green onions or a squeeze of lime.
