Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) or air fryer to 390°F (200°C).
  2. Season the salmon cubes by tossing them with garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper until all pieces are evenly coated.
  3. Coat the salmon cubes in panko breadcrumbs, pressing gently to help them stick. Then, spray with olive oil.
  4. Bake or Air Fry the salmon until it’s golden and crispy, about 10-12 minutes.
  5. Make the Bang Bang Sauce by whisking together mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, sriracha, lime juice, and honey until smooth.
  6. Assemble the Bowls: Start with a base of jasmine rice, layer in the purple cabbage, avocado, and shredded carrots, then top with your crispy salmon bites.
  7. Drizzle with the Bang Bang sauce and garnish with green onions, cilantro, and sesame seeds.
