Ingredients
Scale
Steak Marinade and Seasoning
- 2 lbs top sirloin steak, cut into rough chunks
- 1 tablespoon mirin
- 6 cloves garlic, finely minced or pressed
- 2 teaspoons ginger paste
- 2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon sesame oil, divided
- ½ teaspoon ground white pepper (or black pepper)
- Kosher salt, to taste
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
Vegetables
- 3 medium carrots, thinly cut on a bias
- 2 medium zucchinis, sliced in half lengthwise, then cut into half moons
- 4–5 ounces sliced mushrooms (baby bella preferred)
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
Additional Sauces and Serving
- 1–2 tablespoons teriyaki sauce or Japanese BBQ Sauce (such as Bachan’s)
- Fried rice, for serving
- Store-bought Yum Yum Sauce, for serving
Instructions
- Prepare the Steak: In a large bowl, combine the top sirloin chunks with mirin, minced garlic, ginger paste, 2 tablespoons of sesame oil, ground white pepper, and kosher salt to taste. Toss well to evenly coat the steak. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
- Cook the Vegetables: Heat 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter and 1 teaspoon of sesame oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced carrots, zucchinis, and mushrooms. Sprinkle garlic powder and a pinch of salt over the vegetables and sauté until they are tender but still crisp, approximately 5-7 minutes. Remove the vegetables from the skillet and set aside.
- Sear the Steak: In the same skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter. Increase the heat to high and add the marinated steak chunks. Sear the steak pieces on all sides until they develop a caramelized crust and reach your desired doneness, about 3-4 minutes per side.
- Combine Steak and Vegetables: Reduce heat to medium and return the cooked vegetables to the skillet with the steak. Drizzle the teriyaki or Japanese BBQ sauce over the mixture. Toss everything together gently, allowing the sauce to coat all ingredients and heat through, about 2-3 minutes.
- Assemble the Bowls: Serve the hibachi steak and vegetable mixture over prepared fried rice. Finish each bowl with a generous drizzle of store-bought Yum Yum Sauce for a creamy, tangy complement to the savory flavors.
Notes
- Mirin can be substituted with a mixture of rice wine vinegar and sugar if unavailable.
- Use high heat when searing steak to achieve a good crust without overcooking.
- Feel free to substitute vegetables with broccoli or bell peppers according to preference.
- For a gluten-free option, choose tamari or a gluten-free teriyaki sauce.
- Yum Yum Sauce can be made at home using mayonnaise, tomato paste, rice vinegar, and spices if store-bought is unavailable.
