Ingredients
Main
- 1 pound fresh salmon fillet skin removed and cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs for extra crisp texture
- 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 large egg beaten
- 1 tablespoon olive oil for brushing before cooking
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Cut the salmon into 1-inch bite-sized pieces. Pat dry thoroughly with paper towels to help coating stick.
- Set up three bowls: one with flour, one with beaten egg, and one with panko mixed with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
- Dredge each salmon piece in flour, then egg, then the panko mixture. Press gently to coat well.
- Air Fryer Method: Preheat to 400°F (200°C). Brush or spray bites lightly with olive oil. Cook for 8–10 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crispy.
- Oven Method: Preheat to 425°F (220°C). Place on parchment-lined sheet, brush with oil, and bake for 12–15 minutes until golden and cooked through.
- Let rest 1 minute before serving. Serve with your favorite dip, lemon wedges, or over rice/salad.
