Season the salmon fillets by rubbing them with soy sauce.
Cook the fillets in an air fryer for 10 minutes at 400° or in the oven at 400° for 15-20 minutes depending on thickness. (Do this while the rice is cooking).
Break the cooked salmon into small pieces with a fork.
In a large bowl, combine the salmon, cream cheese, mayonnaise, and sriracha sauce.

Spread the salmon mixture evenly over top of the rice.
Bake for 15 minutes, until heated through and bubbling slightly.
