Sweet-Heat Bang Bang Salmon
Sweet chili and a hint of garlic-chile give this Sweet-Heat Bang Bang Salmon a balanced kick, mellowed by a creamy, tangy sauce. Juicy salmon contrasts with a cool cucumber and avocado salad for freshness and crunch. Serve it for a quick weeknight dinner or a casual weekend meal when you want bold flavor without fuss.
