# Method:
01 - Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - In a bowl, combine flaked salmon, sushi rice, mayonnaise, cream cheese, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sriracha. Mix until fully combined. Stir in scallion and sesame seeds.
03 - Place flatbreads on the prepared baking sheet. Evenly spread the salmon sushi mixture over each flatbread.
04 - Sprinkle mozzarella cheese evenly over the salmon mixture on each flatbread.
05 - Bake for 12-15 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbling and the edges are slightly golden.
06 - While flatbreads bake, whisk together mayonnaise, sriracha, and lime juice in a small bowl until smooth.
07 - Remove flatbreads from the oven. Top with cucumber slices, avocado slices, and nori strips.
08 - Drizzle the spicy sauce generously over the top. Slice into wedges and serve immediately while warm.
# Insider Tips:
01 -
- The crispy flatbread gives you that satisfying crunch you usually only get from tempura
- Everything you love about sushi bake but in handheld form, no chopsticks required
02 -
- Cool the sushi rice completely before mixing or the mayo will separate into an oily mess
- Low moisture mozzarella is non negotiable, regular releases too much water during baking
03 -
- Use kitchen shears to cut nori into strips, way faster and neater than a knife
- Everything must go from oven to table in under five minutes or that crisp bottom gets sad fast
