Step 1

Arrange a rack in the lower third of the oven. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil, place on the rack, and heat the oven to 500°F.

Step 2

Stir 1/4 cup mayonnaise and 2 tablespoons chili crisp together in a small bowl.

Step 3

Pat 4 (6-ounce) salmon fillets dry with paper towels. Divide the mayonnaise mixture between fillets and spread into an even layer on the top and sides.

Step 4

Place the salmon skin-side down on the hot baking sheet. Return to the oven and reduce the temperature to 275°F. Bake until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, 9 to 13 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the middle of the thickest part should register 120°F to 130°F for medium-rare, or 135°F to 145°F for well-done. Serve with lemon wedges if desired.
