Instructions
Creating the Easy Sushi Bake is straightforward and fun. Just follow these clear steps:
1. Preheat: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Cook the Rice: Rinse the sushi rice until the water runs clear. Combine the rice and water in a rice cooker and cook according to the manufacturer’s instructions, or employ the stovetop method until tender and sticky.
3. Prepare the Seafood Mixture: In a large bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, and sriracha sauce. Mix well until fully blended. Then gently fold in the imitation crab and shrimp.
4. Add Green Onions: Stir in the chopped green onions and soy sauce if using. This adds an extra burst of flavor to the mixture.
5. Layer the Dish: In a greased baking dish, spread the cooked sushi rice evenly as the base. Then layer the seafood mixture on top.
6. Top with Cheese: Generously sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the seafood layer.
7. Bake: Place your dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown. Remove from the oven and allow it to cool for about 10 minutes before serving.
