Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Bang Bang Salmon
  1. In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, buffalo sauce, coconut aminos, garlic powder, and paprika until smooth and well combined. Set aside to enhance the flavor of your Bang Bang Salmon.
  2. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Pat the salmon fillets dry and lightly oil a baking sheet. Place the salmon fillets skin-side down.
  3. Brush the top of each salmon fillet lightly with oil. In a bowl, combine salt, garlic powder, and paprika, then rub onto the fillets for an even flavor coating.
  4. Using a basting brush, carefully apply a layer of the prepared Bang Bang sauce over each salmon fillet.
  5. Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake the salmon for 6-8 minutes, until flaked easily with a fork.
  6. Remove the salmon from the oven and brush with remaining Bang Bang sauce. Broil on high for about 2 minutes for a beautiful glaze.
