1-First: preheat the oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup. Drizzle 1 tablespoon olive oil over the 4 salmon filets and rub it in gently to coat them well. In a small bowl, mix 1 teaspoon paprika, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, and ½ teaspoon black pepper, then sprinkle this evenly over the salmon.

2-Next: in another bowl, combine ½ cup mayonnaise, ¼ cup Thai sweet chili sauce, 1 teaspoon Sriracha (or more if you like it hotter), and 1 tablespoon honey to make the sauce. Divide the sauce into two equal parts. Brush half of the sauce over the salmon filets to add that signature flavor.

3-Place the salmon skin-side down on the baking sheet, making sure there’s space between them. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F check after 6 minutes to avoid overcooking. For a crispier finish, broil for 1-2 minutes if you want extra texture.

4-Once done, remove from the oven and drizzle the remaining sauce over the top. Garnish with chopped chives and serve warm, perhaps with rice for a complete meal. The total preparation time is about 20 minutes, with 10 minutes of prep and 10 minutes of cooking, making it ideal for busy schedules.
