๐ฅ Instructions
- Prep the Salmon โข Cut the salmon into bite-sized chunks (around 3โ4 cm each). โข Pat dry with a paper towel and season lightly with salt and pepper.
- Make the Teriyaki Marinade โข In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, brown sugar, rice vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger. โข Add the salmon pieces and gently toss to coat. โข Marinate for 15โ20 minutes in the fridge.
- Coat & Cook โข Drain salmon from the marinade and lightly coat each piece in cornstarch for crispiness. โข Heat a nonstick skillet with a little oil over medium-high heat. โข Cook the salmon nuggets for 2โ3 minutes per side, until golden and cooked through. โข In the same pan, pour the remaining marinade and simmer 1โ2 minutes until thick and glossy. โข Return the salmon to the pan and toss to glaze.
- Make the Pineapple Chili Dip โข Blend all dip ingredients (pineapple, chili sauce, lime juice, soy sauce, honey, and red pepper flakes) until smooth. โข Chill before serving.
- Serve โข Serve the glazed salmon nuggets hot with the chilled pineapple chili dip on the side. โข Sprinkle with green onions and sesame seeds for garnish.
