Instructions

Creating Spicy Shrimp Sushi Stacks requires careful preparation and assembly. Follow these straightforward steps to create your amazing sushi stacks:

1. Cook the Shrimp: In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add shrimp, soy sauce, and sriracha. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until shrimp turns pink and opaque.
2. Prepare Sushi Rice: If not already done, cook sushi rice according to package instructions. Once cooked, let it cool to room temperature.
3. Prep Vegetables: While shrimp is cooking, dice avocado, thinly slice cucumber, and shred the carrot.
4. Cut Nori: Use kitchen scissors to cut the nori sheets into small squares, roughly 4×4 inches.
5. Layer the Ingredients: On a flat surface or plate, place a square of nori. Add a layer of sushi rice, pressing it down gently.
6. Add Shrimp: Layer cooked shrimp on top of the rice, allowing a bit to hang over the edges.
7. Add Vegetables: Follow with layers of avocado, cucumber, and shredded carrot, pressing gently to keep the stack intact.
8. Repeat Layers: Continue adding nori, rice, shrimp, and vegetables to build the stack to your desired height.
9. Garnish: Once you’ve reached the top, sprinkle chopped green onions and sesame seeds over the final layer.
10. Final Touch: Drizzle spicy mayo over the stack for an extra kick, if desired.

These steps will guide you in assembling the incredible Spicy Shrimp Sushi Stacks, ensuring everything holds together beautifully.
