Pat the salmon cubes dry with a paper towel.
Toss the salmon cubes with garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper in a bowl until evenly coated.
If needed, lightly spray the air fryer basket with olive oil. Arrange the seasoned salmon bites in a single layer, leaving space between them.
Air fry for 8-10 minutes at 400°F, flipping halfway through, until the salmon is golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature of 145°F).
While the salmon cooks, whisk together mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, sriracha, and honey in a small bowl.
Drizzle the Bang Bang sauce over the salmon bites, and garnish with chopped green onions or sesame seeds. Enjoy it as a side or as a dip.

Customizable Heat Level: Adjust the spice by reducing Sriracha for a milder version or increasing it for extra heat. Swap smoked paprika with cayenne for a bolder kick.
Storage: Store the leftovers in the fridge for up to 2 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
Reheat: You can reheat in the air fryer at 325°F for 3 minutes, but drizzle with a fresh batch of Bang Bang sauce for the best flavor!
