Ingredients
  

For the salmon bites
  • 1 lb salmon Any fresh salmon will work.
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp sriracha Adjust to taste for spiciness.
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1/4 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil For frying.
  • 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1/4 tsp onion powder

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Pat the salmon dry with paper towels and season both sides with kosher salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and chili powder.
  2. In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the honey, sriracha, apple cider vinegar, and minced garlic until well combined.
Cooking
  1. Heat the coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat until hot and shimmering.
  2. Place the salmon in the skillet skin-side down and cook for 4–5 minutes, until the bottom is golden and crisp.
  3. Carefully flip the salmon using tongs or a spatula, then pour the honey sriracha sauce into the skillet.
  4. Continue cooking for another 3–4 minutes while spooning the sauce over the salmon until the fish is cooked through and glazed.
Serving
