  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: 2 sandwiches

Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 2 (6 ounce) cans salmon (boneless, skinless)
  • 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons sriracha sauce
  • 2 teaspoons chili crunch
  • 2 green onions, diced
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

To Serve

  • 4 slices gluten-free bread
  • 4 leaves romaine lettuce
  • 1/2 cup sprouts

Instructions

  1. Drain salmon: Open the cans of salmon and drain any excess liquid. Add the drained salmon to a mixing bowl.
  2. Dice onion: Finely dice the green onions, including both white and green parts for full flavor, or just the green parts if you prefer a milder taste. Add the diced onions to the salmon in the bowl.
  3. Add remaining ingredients: Add mayonnaise, sriracha, chili crunch, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to the bowl with the salmon and onions.
  4. Mix ingredients: Thoroughly mix all ingredients until well combined. Adjust seasoning and spice level by adding more sriracha or chili crunch if desired.
  5. Assemble sandwich: Lay out the gluten-free bread slices, then layer with romaine lettuce leaves, a generous portion of the spicy salmon salad, and sprouts.
  6. Serve and enjoy: Serve immediately with your favorite sandwich accompaniments such as tomato slices or avocado if desired. Enjoy your spicy salmon salad sandwich fresh!

Notes

  • For a milder sandwich, use only the green parts of the green onions and reduce the amount of sriracha and chili crunch.
  • The salad can be served on any type of bread but gluten-free is used here to accommodate gluten sensitivities.
  • Feel free to add extra veggies like sliced tomato or avocado to enhance texture and flavor.
  • This recipe is best enjoyed fresh but can be stored covered in the refrigerator for up to 1 day.
