Ingredients

3 pounds - salmon
½ cup - mayonnaise
1 tbsp - garlic
½ cup - sweet chili sauce
2 tablespoons - sriracha
1 tsp - paprika
1 tsp - salt
¼ tsp - cayenne pepper
½ tsp - pepper

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F.
In a medium bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, cayenne pepper, minced garlic, sweet chili sauce, sriracha, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil. Place the salmon on the baking sheet, and spread the mayonnaise mixture evenly over the top of the salmon.
Bake the salmon for 20-25 minutes, or until it is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
After the salmon is cooked through, set the oven to broil. Place the salmon under the broiler for 2 minutes, or until the top is lightly browned and crispy.
Once the salmon is finished broiling, remove it from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Serve the salmon hot, garnished with sliced green onions or cilantro, if desired.
