Steak Marinade
- 2 lbs top sirloin steak, cut into rough chunks
- 1 tablespoon mirin
- 6 cloves garlic, finely minced or pressed
- 2 teaspoons ginger paste
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil (divided)
- 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 and cut into half moons
- 4–5 ounces sliced mushrooms (baby bella preferred)
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon sesame oil (divided)
- Kosher salt and pepper, to taste
Other Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
- 1–2 tablespoons teriyaki sauce or Japanese BBQ sauce (e.g., Bachan’s)
- Fried rice, for serving
- Store-bought Yum Yum Sauce, for serving
- Prep & Marinate Steak: Place the sirloin steak chunks into a large bowl or plastic bag. Add mirin, minced garlic, ginger paste, 1 teaspoon sesame oil, ground white or black pepper, and kosher salt to taste. Toss everything together until the steak chunks are thoroughly coated. Set aside to marinate for at least 30 minutes to develop flavor.
- Sauté Vegetables: Heat 2 tablespoons butter and 1 tablespoon sesame oil in a wok or large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the carrots, zucchinis, and mushrooms. Cook the vegetables while tossing often until they become tender and golden brown, about 10-15 minutes. Season with garlic powder, salt, and pepper to taste. Transfer the cooked vegetables to a clean plate and set aside. Wipe the pan clean with a damp paper towel if necessary.
- Cook the Steak: In the same pan, add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and 1 tablespoon sesame oil, heating over medium-high heat. When hot, add the marinated steak chunks. Cook while tossing frequently until the steak is nicely seared but still tender, approximately 3-4 minutes. Avoid overcooking to prevent toughness. Remove from heat and drizzle with teriyaki or Japanese BBQ sauce. Toss well to coat the steak chunks evenly, giving them a glossy finish.
- Assemble the Bowls & Serve: Evenly distribute the cooked steak and sautéed vegetables into shallow bowls along with a serving of fried rice. Drizzle with store-bought Yum Yum Sauce or serve it on the side for dipping. Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious Hibachi Steak Bowls!
Notes
- Marinating the steak for longer than 30 minutes will enhance the flavor even more.
- Feel free to substitute the fried rice with steamed white rice or cauliflower rice for a lighter option.
- Adjust the amount of teriyaki sauce according to your preference for sweetness and saltiness.
- Use fresh ginger paste or freshly grated ginger for optimal taste.
- For a vegetarian alternative, replace the steak with firm tofu or tempeh and use vegetable oil instead of butter.
