Ingredients
Steak and Sauce
- 1½ lbs sirloin steak, cut into bite-sized cubes
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- 2 tbsp butter
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 tbsp teriyaki sauce
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- ½ tsp black pepper
Optional Vegetables
- 2 zucchini, sliced
- 1 onion, sliced
- 8 oz mushrooms, sliced
Garnish
- Sliced green onions
- Sesame seeds
Instructions
- Preheat the griddle or skillet: Heat a Blackstone griddle or large skillet over medium-high heat until hot enough to sear the steak.
- Sear the steak: Add the vegetable oil to the hot surface and place the sirloin steak cubes on it. Let them cook undisturbed for 2–3 minutes to develop a nice sear.
- Flip the steak: Turn the steak pieces over to cook the other side for another 2–3 minutes until browned and cooked to your preferred doneness.
- Add butter and garlic: Lower the heat slightly, add the butter and minced garlic to the griddle, stirring or tossing until the garlic is fragrant and the butter has melted.
- Make the sauce: Pour in low-sodium soy sauce, teriyaki sauce, and sesame oil over the steak. Toss everything thoroughly to evenly coat the steak with the flavorful sauce.
- Cook the vegetables (optional): Using the same griddle or skillet, cook the sliced zucchini, onion, and mushrooms separately until tender-crisp, usually about 4–5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Garnish and serve: Transfer the steak and vegetables to plates and garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds for added flavor and presentation.
Notes
- Cook the steak to your preferred level of doneness, adjusting time as needed.
- Other steak cuts like ribeye or New York strip work well for this recipe.
- Pair this hibachi steak with fried rice and yum yum sauce for the full Japanese steakhouse experience.
