Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked sushi rice
  • 1 lb fresh salmon fillet
  • ½ cup teriyaki sauce
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil (for cooking salmon)
  • Optional garnish: sliced green onions, sesame seeds

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Salmon: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly oil a skillet over medium heat. Cook the salmon fillet for 3-4 minutes per side until it is just cooked through. Remove from heat and let cool slightly, then flake into bite-sized pieces.
  2. Mix the Teriyaki Sauce with Salmon: In a bowl, combine the flaked salmon with ¼ cup of teriyaki sauce, tossing gently to coat the salmon evenly.
  3. Assemble the Sushi Bake: Spread the cooked sushi rice evenly in a baking dish, pressing down to form a flat layer. Evenly distribute the teriyaki salmon mixture over the rice. Drizzle the remaining ¼ cup of teriyaki sauce over the top.
  4. Add Cheese and Bake: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the salmon layer. Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 15-20 minutes until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly browned.
  5. Garnish and Serve: Remove the dish from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds if desired. Serve warm as a comforting sushi-inspired casserole.

Notes

  • Use freshly cooked sushi rice for best texture and flavor.
  • You can substitute mozzarella with a blend of mozzarella and cream cheese for a richer taste.
  • Adjust the amount of teriyaki sauce based on your preferred sweetness and saltiness.
  • This dish can be served as a main course or shared as an appetizer.
  • Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 2 days and reheated in the oven.
