Ingredients
Scale
Steak Marinade
- 1½ lbs NY Strip Steak
- 2 tbsp low sodium soy sauce (or tamari)
- 2 tbsp sesame oil (or olive oil)
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp ginger paste
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tbsp honey (optional)
Fried Rice
- 6 cups cooked and cooled Basmati rice
- 2 tbsp sesame oil (or olive oil)
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 3 eggs
- 12 oz bag frozen vegetables, thawed
- ¼ cup low sodium soy sauce
- 2 tbsp butter
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp ginger paste
- 1 tbsp sesame seeds
Spicy Mayo Sauce
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- ¼ cup ketchup
- 1 tbsp Sriracha
- Salt to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the Marinade: In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, ginger paste, Worcestershire sauce, and honey until fully combined to create a flavorful marinade for the steak.
- Heat the Cooking Surface: Preheat a griddle or two large pans over high heat for approximately 4 minutes to reach a searing temperature necessary for hibachi-style cooking.
- Cook the Fried Rice: Add sesame oil to the hot pan(s), then add the cooked and cooled rice along with diced onion and beaten eggs. Stir and toss continuously for about 3 minutes to combine and begin cooking the eggs.
- Add Vegetables and Seasonings: Stir in thawed frozen vegetables, then add the soy sauce, butter, minced garlic, ginger paste, and sesame seeds. Continue cooking and tossing for about 5 minutes until the rice develops a golden brown crust, indicating it is properly fried and flavorful.
- Cook the Steak (Optional Step based on typical hibachi): While not explicitly mentioned, typically the steak is cooked on the hot griddle or pan using the prepared marinade for several minutes per side until desired doneness is reached. Let the steak rest before slicing.
- Prepare the Spicy Mayo: In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, ketchup, Sriracha, and salt to taste to create a spicy mayo sauce to serve alongside the steak and fried rice.
- Serve: Plate the hibachi steak slices alongside the golden fried rice and drizzle or serve with the spicy mayo sauce for a complete hibachi-style meal.
Notes
- Use day-old or cooled rice to prevent sogginess in the fried rice.
- NY Strip Steak can be substituted with ribeye or sirloin for variation.
- Adjust the amount of Sriracha in the spicy mayo to control heat level.
- Ensure the cooking surface is very hot to achieve authentic hibachi sear and crust.
- Frozen mixed vegetables can be replaced with fresh vegetables like peas, carrots, and corn if desired.
- Honey in the marinade is optional but adds a nice balance of sweetness.
