Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound salmon fillets
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons sweet chili sauce
- 1 tablespoon sriracha (adjust to taste)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- Salt and pepper to taste

- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, sriracha, garlic powder, onion powder, lime juice, salt, and pepper until smooth.
- Place the salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the sauce mixture generously over the salmon, reserving some for serving.
- Bake the salmon in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and is cooked through.
- Remove the salmon from the oven and drizzle with any remaining sauce. Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds before serving.

Notes
- For a crispy topping, broil the salmon for the last 2-3 minutes of cooking.
- Try substituting the salmon with chicken breasts or tofu for a different protein option.
