To achieve the perfect crispy exterior on your salmon bites, begin by mixing the dry ingredients for the coating. In a medium bowl, combine all-purpose flour, cornstarch, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. The cornstarch is crucial as it helps create a light and crispy texture when fried. Mix all the ingredients thoroughly to ensure an even distribution of flavors and seasonings. This mixture will serve as the foundation for the delicious coating that enhances the salmon’s natural flavor.

Ingredients
  

1 lb salmon fillet, skin removed and cut into bite-sized cubes

1/2 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 cup cornstarch

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

1/4 cup vegetable oil (for frying)

For the Honey Garlic Sauce:

1/4 cup honey

2 tablespoons soy sauce

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger

1 tablespoon rice vinegar

Optional: Sliced green onions and sesame seeds for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Bites: In a medium bowl, combine the flour, cornstarch, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss the salmon cubes in the flour mixture until they are fully coated. Shake off any excess.

    Heat the Oil: In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the salmon bites in a single layer. Work in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan.

      Fry the Salmon: Cook the salmon for about 3-4 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and crispy. Once cooked, transfer the bites to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

        Make the Sauce: In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, grated ginger, and rice vinegar. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for about 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened slightly.

          Coat the Bites: Gently toss the crispy salmon bites in the honey garlic sauce until they are well-coated.

            Serve: Plate the salmon bites and drizzle extra sauce on top. Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds if desired. Enjoy your delicious Crispy Honey Garlic Salmon Bites!
