Ingredients

Scale

Steak Marinade

  • 2 lbs top sirloin steak, cut into rough chunks
  • 1 tablespoon mirin
  • 6 cloves of garlic, finely minced or pressed
  • 2 teaspoons ginger paste
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • ½ teaspoon ground white pepper (or black pepper)
  • Kosher salt, to taste

Vegetables

  • 3 medium carrots, thinly cut on a bias
  • 2 medium zucchinis, sliced in half lengthwise & then cut into half moons
  • 45 ounces sliced mushrooms (baby bella)
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Cooking Fats and Sauces

  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided (4 tablespoons in total, 2 + 2 tablespoons but recipe states 3 total butter, so 4 tablespoons total with 2 + 2 tablespoons divided)
  • 2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon sesame oil, divided
  • 12 tablespoons teriyaki sauce or Japanese BBQ sauce (e.g., Bachan’s)

To Serve

  • Fried rice
  • Store-bought Yum Yum Sauce

Instructions

  1. Prep & Marinate Steak: Place the sirloin chunks into a large bowl or plastic bag. Add mirin, minced garlic, ginger paste, 1 teaspoon sesame oil, white or black pepper, and kosher salt to taste. Toss thoroughly to ensure each piece is coated. Let the steak marinate for at least 30 minutes to develop flavor.
  2. Sauté Veggies: Heat 2 tablespoons butter and 1 tablespoon sesame oil in a wok or large skillet over medium heat. Add the thinly sliced carrots, zucchini half moons, and sliced mushrooms. Cook, tossing frequently, until vegetables are tender and golden brown, about 10 to 15 minutes. Season with garlic powder, salt, and pepper as needed. Remove veggies to a clean plate and wipe pan clean if necessary.
  3. Cook Steak: In the same pan, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and 1 tablespoon of sesame oil. Heat over medium-high until hot, then add the marinated steak pieces. Cook, tossing often, until the steak is nicely seared but still tender, about 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat and drizzle teriyaki or Japanese BBQ sauce over the steak. Toss to coat until the meat is glossy and flavorful.
  4. Assemble Bowls & Serve: Divide the fried rice evenly among shallow bowls. Top with the sautéed vegetables and the glazed steak pieces. Finish each bowl with a drizzle of store-bought Yum Yum sauce or serve the sauce on the side. Enjoy your hibachi steak bowls with authentic Japanese steakhouse flavors!

Notes

  • Marinate the steak for longer (up to 2 hours) if time permits for deeper flavor.
  • Adjust the amount of teriyaki sauce according to your taste preference.
  • Use fresh vegetables to maintain a vibrant texture and color.
  • Yum Yum sauce can be homemade or store-bought; either works great.
  • For a gluten-free option, ensure that the teriyaki sauce and Yum Yum sauce are gluten-free.
