Preparation
STEP 1

Cook rice according to package directions.

While the rice cooks, prepare the quick-pickled cucumbers. In a medium bowl, toss cucumber slices with rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Let stand at room temperature for at least 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until lightly pickled.

STEP 3

Prepare salmon using your preferred method.

STEP 4

In a small bowl, stir together mayonnaise and sriracha until smooth. Set aside.

STEP 5

Divide rice among serving bowls. Top with salmon flaked into large bite-sized pieces, avocado, and pickled cucumbers. Drizzle with spicy mayo and serve immediately.
