Any good Sushi Recipes?
I have a sushi kit with everything, but the fillings so alas, that is what I need to find!
The family’s favourite kind of sushi is chicken maki or chicken teriyaki (I adore the ones with sashimi in them, but the rest of the family doesn’t) and I was wondering if anyone has a recipe for them?
I can’t seem to find one.
Or, if you have any other awesome filling ideas…?
Thanks in advance!

teamkimme… I’ve tried that and it made me sick.. lol.
I’ve also got the seaweed and rice already… thanks though!
Chicken Teriyaki
Ingredients
3 lb chicken thighs, boned and skinned
2 inches ginger root
1/2 cup Tamari
1/2 cup mirin
1 tablespoon honey
1/4 cup sake or gin
Method
Bone and skin the chicken thighs, keeping the meat as intact as you can.
Grind or grate the ginger, place in the center of a towel and wring out the juice.
Mix the ginger juice, soy, mirin, and sake, and marinate the chicken thighs. You may find it easier to handle by skewering the chicken thighs.
Drain the marinade, add the honey, and reduce to a syrup by boiling.
Grill the chicken thighs on medium heat, painting them with the marinade to build up a glaze when they are almost done. Don’t turn your back or they may burn as the sugar in the sauce tends to caramelize too quickly.
Slice and serve. The slices should have a moist shiny glaze so save some of the boiled marinade for a final brushing before serving.
Crab & tuna sushi
Sushi is traditionally made with a bamboo sushi mat. Wrapping the mat with plastic wrap is a common practice that makes cleanup a bit easier. Also the plastic prevents the rice from sticking when you are preparing inside-out rolls. There are usually ten sheets of nori in each package, which yields extras just in case you make a mistake or just want to experiment. Sushi is served with pickled ginger.
Sushi is actually easy to make at home if you have the right tools. A well-equipped sushi kit has all the necessary components packaged for you in one box: bamboo sushi mat, rice paddle, wasabi, nori, soy sauce, rice vinegar and pickled ginger. All you need to do is to select your filling such as ahi tuna,
crab meat, salmon or fresh vegetables.
Ingredients
8 nori sheets
Sushi Rice
2 tablespoons wasabi paste
1 hothouse cucumber, cut into matchstick-size strips
4 ounces crab meat
1 avocado, pitted, peeled, cut into strips
One 10-ounce bag fresh spinach leaves, blanched, excess liquid squeezed out
1/4 pound ahi tuna, cut into matchstick-size strips
Accompaniments: Soy sauce, Additional wasabi paste, Pickled ginger
Method
Working with 1 nori sheet at a time, place nori sheet shiny-side down on bamboo sushi mat. Using rice paddle, spread 3/4 cup Sushi Rice over nori sheet forming 1/4-inch thick layer and leaving 1/2-inch border along the long sides. Spread very thin horizontal strip of wasabi [no more than 1 teaspoon] over middle of rice. Arrange 1/8 of cucumber, crab meat, avocado, spinach and tuna horizontally over wasabi.
Starting with long edge nearest you and using bamboo sushi mat as aid, roll rice-coated nori around fillings jelly-roll style. Using gentle pressing motion, compress roll forming round or square roll.
Remove mat. Cut roll crosswise into eight 3/4-inch slices. Repeat.
Serve sushi with soy sauce, additional wasabi and pickled ginger.
