Can I use frozen salmon cubes?

It is not recommended. Frozen salmon releases too much water during cooking, which will boil the fish instead of frying it. Thaw the salmon completely in the fridge overnight before cutting and cooking.

It has a "medium" kick. If you are sensitive to spice, reduce the Sriracha to 1 teaspoon or omit it entirely for a "Honey Garlic" version.

Can I make this in the oven?

Yes. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) . Arrange the bites on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 10–12 minutes. Broil for the last minute to get the char.

How do I know when the salmon is done?

The internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C) , and the flesh should flake easily with a fork.
