Ingredients
Scale
For the Hibachi Steak
- 1 lb sirloin steak, cut into bite-sized cubes
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
For the Fried Rice
- 4 cups cooked jasmine or white rice (day-old preferred)
- 2 eggs, lightly beaten
- 1/2 cup diced onion
- 1/2 cup chopped carrots
- 1/2 cup frozen peas
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon butter
- Salt and pepper to taste
For Garnish and Serving
- Optional yum yum sauce
- Sliced green onions or sesame seeds
Instructions
- Marinate the Steak: Season the sirloin steak cubes with 2 tablespoons soy sauce and 1 tablespoon sesame oil. Let it marinate for 10–15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
- Sear the Steak: Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon vegetable oil. Add the marinated steak cubes and sear them for about 2–3 minutes on each side until nicely browned and cooked to your desired doneness.
- Add Garlic and Butter: Add 1 tablespoon butter and the minced garlic to the pan with the steak, tossing everything together to coat the meat with rich flavor. Then remove the steak from the pan and keep it warm.
- Sauté Vegetables: In the same pan, add 1 tablespoon butter, then sauté the diced onion and chopped carrots for 3–4 minutes until they soften.
- Scramble the Eggs: Push the vegetables to the side and pour the beaten eggs into the pan. Scramble the eggs gently until fully cooked, then mix them together with the sautéed vegetables.
- Combine Fried Rice: Add the day-old cooked rice and frozen peas to the pan. Stir-fry everything together, breaking apart any rice clumps.
- Season the Rice: Pour in 2 tablespoons soy sauce, season with salt and pepper to taste, and mix thoroughly until the rice is heated through and evenly coated.
- Serve: Plate the fried rice and top it with the cooked hibachi steak. Garnish with sliced green onions or sesame seeds and serve with optional yum yum sauce on the side for dipping.
Notes
- Use cold, day-old rice for the best fried rice texture to prevent it from becoming mushy.
- For added flavor, drizzle extra sesame oil over the finished fried rice before serving or add a splash of teriyaki sauce.
- You can substitute sirloin with ribeye or filet mignon for a more tender, juicy steak.
- Use gluten-free soy sauce to make this recipe gluten-free.
