Whisk the sauce ingredients together until smooth and combined.
Brush half of the bang bang sauce on the salmon filets and reserve the rest for later. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the salmon is opaque in color.
Brush the salmon with the reserved bang bang sauce and broil on high for 1-2 minutes. Remove the salmon from the oven when the center reads around 135 degrees Fahrenheit. The salmon will continue to cook and should reach 145 degrees Fahrenheit before consuming.
