Spicy Salmon Sushi Bake

A warm, creamy dish that captures the flavors of sushi in a baking pan, topped with a spicy salmon mixture.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups sushi rice (uncooked)
  • 2.5 cups water
  • 1/4 cup rice vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 lb fresh salmon fillet (skinless and diced)
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons Sriracha sauce (or to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1/2 cup green onions (chopped, plus extra for garnish)
  • 1 sheet nori (cut into small strips)
  • tobiko (optional for garnish, to taste)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Cook the sushi rice according to package instructions.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Stir until dissolved, then fold into the cooked rice.
  4. Spread the rice evenly at the bottom of the baking dish and let cool slightly.
  5. In another bowl, mix diced salmon, mayonnaise, Sriracha sauce, sesame oil, and green onions until well combined.
  6. Spread the salmon mixture evenly over the rice in the baking dish.
  7. Bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and the top is slightly golden.
  8. Garnish with additional green onions, nori strips, and tobiko if desired.
  9. Serve warm by scooping out with a spoon.

Notes

For a crisp top, broil for 1–2 minutes at the end. Adjust the amount of Sriracha to your preferred spice level.
