Sashimi and Rolls

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Sushi Rice

    Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Cook the rice according to package instructions, typically using a rice cooker or boiling method. Once cooked, let it cool and mix with rice vinegar, sugar, and salt.

  2. 2

    Slice the Fish

    Using a sharp knife, slice the maguro and hamachi into thin sashimi pieces, about 1/4 inch thick. Arrange on a plate.

  3. 3

    Make the Spicy Hamachi Roll

    On a bamboo sushi mat, place a sheet of nori, shiny side down. Spread a thin layer of sushi rice over the nori, leaving a 1-inch border at the top. Place slices of hamachi, cucumber, and avocado in a line across the center. Drizzle with spicy mayo. Roll the sushi tightly using the mat, then slice into 6-8 pieces.

  4. 4

    Grill the Teriyaki Chicken

    Marinate chicken breasts in teriyaki sauce for at least 30 minutes. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium heat. Grill the chicken for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until cooked through. Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Arrange the sliced maguro sashimi on a plate with the spicy hamachi rolls and sliced teriyaki chicken. Serve with soy sauce, pickled ginger, and wasabi on the side.
