Salmon Sliders With Sriracha Aioli

Omega-3–rich salmon is the perfect fish for grilling. It may have more calories than other fish, but those heart-healthy fats protect the fish from drying out over high heat so it stays moist and flavorful. Salmon’s bold flavor can handle spice, so it pairs well with this zesty pepper sauce.
