Ingredients
- cooking spray
- 2 cups cooked sushi rice
- 3 nori sheets, quartered
- 1 (1 1/2-lb.) skinless salmon fillet cut into 1/2" cubes
- 2 scallions, thinly sliced, plus more for serving
- 1 teaspoon Fustinis' Sesame oil, plus more for drizzling
- 4 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 3 tablespoons Fustini's Ginger and Honey balsamic
- 2 1/4 tablespoons sriracha, divided
- Kosher salt
- sesame seeds for garnish
Ingredients
Directions
- Place a rack in the upper third of the oven, preheat to 400°,. Lightly coat a standard 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray. Scoop 1 heaping tablespoon of sushi rice into the center of each piece of nori. Transfer nori to prepared tin rice side up. Using a spoon, gently pack rice into an even layer in the bottom of the cup.
- In a large bowl, toss salmon, scallions, oil, 2 tablespoons mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon balsamic, 2 teaspoons sriracha, and 1/4 teaspoon salt until combined. Divide salmon mixture among muffin cups (about 1/4 c. each), spooning on top of rice. Bake until salmon is almost cooked through, about 11 minutes.
- Turn on the broiler and broil, watching carefully to ensure the salmon doesn't burn until the tops are charred in places and the salmon is cooked through 2 to 4 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the remaining 2 tablespoons of mayonnaise, balsamic, and sriracha. Arrange sushi cups on a platter. Drizzle with mayonnaise mixture. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and scallions.
