If making the bang bang sauce and other serving suggestions, it's a good idea to prep it prior to starting the salmon bites recipe.
Cut your salmon into 1" cubes. If it has the skin on, you can use a sharp knife to remove the skin prior to cutting it up, or leave the skin on if you prefer (it'll get nice and crispy!).
Add the salmon to a bowl and toss with the seasoning salt, smoked paprika, and garlic powder.
Spray your air fryer basket with the olive oil spray. Add the salmon in a single layer (you may need to do 2 batches).
Air fry for 5-7 minutes at 400F or until the salmon is cooked through (I don't preheat the air fryer or turn/flip the salmon).
Serve as desired. I love making a bowl with rice, avocado, scallions, and plenty of bang bang sauce!
- Seasoning salt or Tony's Original seasoning works great. Or use regular salt & pepper if you prefer.
