For the Rice:
1 cup uncooked medium-grain white rice
1 1/4 cups water
3 Tbsp rice vinegar
2 tsp white sugar
1 tsp kosher salt
1 Tbsp toasted sesame seeds
2 Tbsp bonito flakes
1 sheet nori, cut into thin strips
For the Dynamite Topping:
2/3 cup mayonnaise
1 Tbsp soy sauce
1/2 tsp toasted sesame oil
2 Tbsp Sriracha hot sauce
1 cup bay scallops
12 peeled and deveined large shrimp, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
Garnish:
1 dash Sriracha hot sauce, or to taste
1 pinch toasted sesame seeds, or to taste
1/4 cup thinly sliced green onions
Rinse rice and drain. Add rice to a pot and pour in water. Bring to a simmer over high heat, then reduce heat to low. Cover and cook for 20 minutes. Turn off heat and let rest for 10 minutes.
While rice cooks, combine rice vinegar, sugar, and salt together in a small bowl until dissolved. Set aside.
Preheat the oven to 400 F. Lightly grease a shallow 2-quart baking dish with some sesame oil.
Uncover rice and drizzle over seasoned vinegar mixture. Use a fork to break up and fluff rice. Transfer rice into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle over toasted sesame seeds, bonito flakes, and nori; use a fork to gently stir into the rice.
Mix mayonnaise, soy sauce, 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil, and Sriracha for topping together in a bowl and stir in scallops and shrimp. Spread over rice, and sprinkle cayenne over the top.
Bake in the center of the preheated oven until the seafood is just cooked through (or 95% cooked through), about 20 minutes. Turn oven to a high broil setting, and brown the top, 1 to 2 minutes. Garnish the top with more Sriracha, toasted sesame seeds, and green onions before serving.

Good use for leftover rice. Works well with fake crab.
