Method
 

How to Make Panko Crusted Salmon Bites
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This step is crucial for achieving that perfect golden-brown crust on your salmon bites.
  2. Prepare your dredging stations by setting up three shallow dishes. Fill one with the seasoned flour, one with the beaten eggs mixed with lemon juice, and the last with panko breadcrumbs.
  3. Dredge each salmon piece in the flour first, ensuring it's evenly coated. This helps the egg mixture stick, enhancing the overall crunch.
  4. Dip the floured salmon bites in the egg mixture, making sure every nook is coated. This adds moisture and helps the panko adhere beautifully.
  5. Coat the salmon in panko breadcrumbs, pressing lightly to ensure they stick well. You want them to be evenly covered for that irresistible crunch!
  6. Arrange the coated salmon bites on a greased baking sheet, spacing them apart to allow for even cooking. Bake for 12-15 minutes until they’re golden brown and cooked through.
  7. Serve these delightful bites immediately with your favorite dipping sauce. The burst of flavors will leave everyone wanting more!
