It’s hard to keep up with all the TikTok food trends, but you shouldn’t sleep on one of the best and easiest ways to make "dumplings." In 2021, “firecracker salmon” was created by My Nguyen (@myhealthydish), wrapping rice paper (popular for Vietnamese summer rolls) around tender seared salmon, scallions, and jalapeño before searing the whole dumpling until crispy. Our version uses Cravings’ Chili-Garlic seasoning for extra kick and what we’re calling Everything Sauce for dipping. It’s super savory, slightly spicy, and tangy, and goes well with more ideas from our easy meal prep plan, like another TikTok-inspired fave: Creamy, Spicy Salmon Rice Lettuce Wraps!
1 (5 or 6-ounce) fillet of center-cut salmon, skin removed
½ teaspoon Cravings’ Chili-Garlic seasoning (or 1 teaspoon garlic powder and ½ teaspoon Thai chili flakes, hot chili flakes, or cayenne)
6 pieces rice paper wrapper
2 scallions, green and pale green parts only, cut into 1 ½-inch pieces
4 tablespoons canola or vegetable oil, divided
½ jalapeño pepper, sliced into thin rounds
Makes ⅓ cup
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon fish sauce
1 teaspoon sugar
3 tablespoons unseasoned rice vinegar
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 teaspoon sriracha, or more if you like it spicier
½ teaspoon garlic powder
Super tender salmon, refreshing greens, and the crunchiest topping (that doubles as a snack!)
Swap out your bagel and lox for sushi!
A simple, weeknight meal to satisfy the entire family. (Or just you. Which is also fine.)
A truly showstopping dish that's perfect for Lunar New Year.
