Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Teriyaki Salmon Sushi Bake
  1. Start by removing the skin from your salmon fillet and cutting it into small, bite-sized cubes. In a mixing bowl, combine the cubed salmon with teriyaki sauce and a sprinkle of kosher salt. Allow the mixture to marinate for about 10 minutes.
  2. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a small baking dish, press down evenly cooked sushi rice to create a solid base layer. Spread the marinated salmon mixture evenly over the rice, then add garlic powder and brown sugar.
  3. Shift the oven setting to broil on high, and place the baking dish under the broiler for roughly 6 minutes, monitoring closely for caramelization and doneness.
  4. Once broiling is complete, remove the dish from the oven. Layer sliced avocado across the top, then drizzle with spicy mayo and sprinkle furikake, crispy fried onion bits, and scallions.
  5. Serve immediately while it’s hot, enjoying the blend of sweet teriyaki, creamy avocado, and sticky rice.
