  • In a medium bowl, flake the cooked salmon into small pieces. Add mayonnaise, sriracha, and sesame oil. Mix until well combined. Fold in chopped green onions and adjust sriracha to taste.
  • Spread the prepared sushi rice evenly across the bottom of a baking dish, packing it down gently. Layer the spicy salmon mixture on top of the rice and spread evenly.
  • Preheat the oven to 400°F. Bake the sushi bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly. Let cool for a few minutes before serving.
