Who doesn't love the baked Lion King Rollat your local sushi house? The Lion King Roll isa baked salmon roll topped with thesauce of the Gods,mayo and Sriracha. I have learned how to replicate this famous sushi roll at home. However, ittakessome time to make the sushi rice, cut the ingredients into long segments and roll everything in seaweed wrapper.
This baked teriyaki salmon dish tastes likea deconstructed Lion King Roll. You get a similartaste of the famous Lion King Rollbut instead of hours preparing, it takesminutes. There's no sushi rice to make. There's no rolling.It's so quick and easy that it's now one of mygo-to meals when I'm short on time.
It also helps to make a large batch of the teriyaki sauce and have it ready-to-go. This homemade teriyaki sauce is better than any store-bought sauce, which I often find way toopungent. The homemade teriyaki sauce is also great on chicken and pork.
Makes four servings
Ingredients
4 salmon fillets
1 1/2 tablespoon white sesame seeds
Steamed white rice
1 large avocado
Sriracha Mayo Sauce
1/4 cup mayo
3 tablespoons Sriracha sauce
Teriyaki Marinade
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon minced ginger
1/4 teaspoon minced garlic
2 tablespoons honey
1 cup water
1 tablespoon corn starch
Instructions
Whisk together soy sauce, brown sugar, ginger, garlic, honey, water and corn starch in a small sauce pan until the corn starch is completely dissolved. Heat the sauce pan on medium high until it thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon.
Let the mixture cool. Then marinate the salon fillets in the mixture for at least 30 minutes. Overnight in the fridge is best.
Lay the fillets on foil and pop them in the oven at 400 F. No need to preheat. Bake for 20 minutes.
Once the fillets are done baking, sprinkle the sesame seeds on top and broil on high for 5 minutes to get a golden brown top.
Mix together mayo and Sriracha.
Top the cooked salmon with the mayo sauce.
Serve with steamed white rice and sliced avocados.
