Ingredients
Directions
Pour rice into a heavy pot and add water; swirl to allow rice to settle. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat; do not stir. Reduce heat to low, cover, and continue to simmer for 15 minutes.

While rice is cooking, place tuna into a large mixing bowl and break up with your hands or a fork. Toss in red bell pepper, jalapeno, 1/4 cup green onions, rice vinegar, soy sauce, sesame oil, Sriracha, and lemon juice. Mix with a fork until thoroughly combined.
Turn off heat and let rice sit, covered, for 10 minutes.
Fluff rice with a fork to separate the grains and break up any large clumps; transfer into the mixing bowl. Mix thoroughly with a spoon until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve warm, at room temperature, or cold like a rice salad, topped with red pepper flakes and 1 teaspoon green onion.
Chef's Notes:
If using unseasoned rice vinegar, adjust with a few pinches of sugar and salt.
You can use any hot sauce you like.
If you use a little less dressing, a shorter grain of rice, and make this a little stickier, you can actually press this together and form it into balls which can be rolled in sesame seeds for an incredible handheld snack to bring to work or a picnic.
