Instructions
Marinade cubed salmon with fish sauce, hot sauce, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder until evenly coated.
Marinate the salmon for 5 minutes. Mince the garlic during this time so it is ready for the sauce.
Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Add salmon and cook each side for 2-3 minutes until well browned.
Remove salmon and set aside.
Add butter and the minced garlic to the same pan and cook until fragrant.
Add the fish sauce, Chin-Su hot sauce, sugar, and lime juice to the pan and mix together.
Let the sauce simmer 1-2 minutes and thicken until glossy.
Return the salmon to the pan and coat well on all sides with the sauce.
Transfer to a plate, drizzle with extra sauce, slice, serve over rice, and enjoy!
Notes
Marinate at least 10 minutes for better flavor.
Shake off extra cornstarch to prevent clumping and coat the chicken right before frying for best crunch.
The sauce should look syrupy before tossing.
