Equipment

  • Large skillet or wok
  • Mixing Bowl
  • Cutting Board
  • Chef’s Knife

Ingredients
  

  • 2 pounds top sirloin steak cut into 1-inch chunks
  • 1 tablespoon mirin Japanese sweet rice wine
  • 6 cloves garlic finely minced
  • 2 teaspoons fresh ginger paste or grated ginger
  • 2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon sesame oil divided
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground white pepper black pepper works too
  • Kosher salt to taste
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter divided
  • 3 medium carrots sliced thin on a diagonal
  • 2 medium zucchini cut into half-moons
  • 4 to 5 ounces baby bella mushrooms sliced
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons teriyaki sauce or Japanese BBQ sauce
  • 4 cups cooked fried rice warmed
  • Yum yum sauce for serving
  • Green onions sliced, for garnish
  • Black sesame seeds for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Place the top sirloin steak chunks in a large bowl. Add the mirin, minced garlic, ginger paste, 1 teaspoon sesame oil, white pepper, and a generous pinch of Kosher salt. Toss all ingredients to fully combine, ensuring steak chunks are thoroughly coated. Set aside to marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  • In a large skillet or wok, heat 2 tablespoons unsalted butter and 1 tablespoon sesame oil over medium heat. When hot, add the carrots, zucchini, and mushrooms. Cook the vegetables, tossing often, until tender and golden brown, about 10-15 minutes. Season with garlic powder, salt, and pepper to taste. Transfer to a clean plate and set aside.
  • In the same pan, add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and 1 tablespoon sesame oil over medium-high heat. When hot, add the marinated steak. Cook, tossing beef often, until nicely seared on all sides, about 3-4 minutes. Be careful not to overcook the steak into toughness.
  • Remove from heat and drizzle in the teriyaki sauce or Japanese BBQ sauce. Toss well to coat the steak chunks in sauce until they're glistening.
  • To assemble, evenly divide the warmed fried rice among shallow bowls. Top each bowl with the hibachi steak and sautéed vegetables. Drizzle with yum yum sauce and garnish with sliced green onions and black sesame seeds. Serve immediately while hot.

Notes

  • Top sirloin works best for this recipe, but flank steak or skirt steak are good alternatives
  • Don't skip the 30-minute marinating time - it's crucial for flavor and tenderness
  • Get your pan screaming hot before adding the steak for the best sear
  • Store-bought yum yum sauce works great, or make your own with mayo, ketchup, rice vinegar, and sugar
  • Day-old rice fries up better than freshly cooked rice
