Spicy Salmon Sushi Bake
Makes 6 to 10 servings
Sushi lovers, look no further for your next easy weeknight dinner! All the delicious flavors of spicy salmon sushi come together in this simple casserole. This sushi bake can be enjoyed on its own, but we recommend serving with nori sheets and sliced avocado to take it to a whole other level!
Ingredients
- 3 pounds salmon fillet, skin off and pinbones removed
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- Nonstick cooking spray
- 4 cups cooked sushi rice, warm
- 1 teaspoon furikake
- 4 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
- ¼ cup Japanese mayonnaise, plus more for garnish
- 2 tablespoons Sriracha
- 2 teaspoons lightly seasoned rice wine vinegar
- 3 scallions, sliced, green and white parts divided
- ¼ cup sweet chili sauce, plus more for garnish
Preparation
- Season the salmon with the salt. Place the air fryer basket onto the baking pan and generously coat with nonstick cooking spray.
- Place the salmon in the basket. Place into the oven in the middle rack position. Select Air Fry, and set the temperature at 375°F and the time to 15 minutes. Press Start/Stop. Cook until the salmon is cooked through – it may take less than the set time.
- Press the cooked sushi rice into the 2-in-1 pan in an even layer. Sprinkle with the furikake and reserve.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the cream cheese, mayonnaise, Sriracha, and rice wine vinegar until smooth. Crumble the cooked salmon and add to the sauce along with the scallion whites. Toss to combine. Spread the salmon mixture over the rice in an even layer.
- Place the pan in the oven with the rack in the middle position. Select Bake, and set the temperature at 450°F and the time to 8 minutes. Press Start/Stop. Cook until the salmon starts to brown.
- Remove the pan from oven. Drizzle with additional mayonnaise and sweet chili sauce. Garnish with the scallion greens. Serve immediately.
