Teriyaki Salmon Bites (Extra Crispy!)
Report
Crispy on the outside, tender and flaky on the inside, these Teriyaki Salmon Bites are a game changer of a recipe! The teriyaki sauce doubles as a marinade and a sauce, with a quick dusting of cornstarch and a fry on the stovetop to give them that crunchy exterior.

Ingredients
- 1 lb. salmon skin removed, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 2 Tbsp. avocado oil
Teriyaki Sauce
- ¼ cup soy sauce regular or gluten-free
- 3 Tbsp. brown sugar
- 1 Tbsp. rice vinegar
- 2 garlic finely minced, cloves
- 1 tsp. ginger minced
- 1 tsp. sesame oil toasted
- 1 tsp. sriracha optional
- 3 Tbsp. cornstarch divided
- ¼ cup water warm
Instructions
- Remove the skin from the salmon, if desired, and cut into 1-inch chunks.
- In a measuring cup, combine all the teriyaki sauce ingredients except for the cornstarch and water. Whisk until well combined.
- Add the salmon to a large bowl and pour half of the sauce over it. Toss until well combined. Allow the mixture to marinate, covered in the fridge for at least 10 minutes. Reserve the remaining sauce for later use.
- Remove the salmon from the bowl, letting any excess marinade drip off. Toss the salmon with 2 tablespoons of cornstarch until a thick, paste-like coating forms.
- Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add 1 teaspoon avocado oil and swirl to coat. Add the salmon and cook 2-3 minutes per side, or until it flakes easily with a fork and the coating is golden.
- Remove the cooked salmon from the skillet and reduce the heat to low. Pour in the reserved teriyaki sauce.
- In a small bowl or measuring cup, mix the remaining 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with warm water. Pour the mixture into the saucepan. Whisk constantly for 1-2 minutes, or until the sauce thickens. Remove from heat once desired consistency is reached.
- Add salmon bites back into the sauce and toss to coat. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Cut. Small pieces of salmon get that crispy exterior.
- Marinate. The sauce gives the flavor the best texture and flavor.
- Reduce. Let the sauce thicken with the cornstarch slurry.
- Storage. These salmon bites are best enjoyed immediately. This is when they're the crispiest. However, you can store them for later. If saving, I recommend keeping the sauce separate from the fish in airtight containers in the fridge.
- Reheat. Warm the salmon in a skillet to get that crispy exterior again.
