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
- 2 tablespoons 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
- 4–5 ounces sliced mushrooms (baby bella recommended)
Seasonings & Finishing
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil (additional)
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1–2 tablespoons teriyaki sauce or Japanese BBQ sauce (such as Bachan’s)
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
For Serving
- Fried rice
- Store-bought Yum Yum Sauce
- Marinate the Steak: In a bowl, combine the top sirloin steak chunks with mirin, minced garlic, ginger paste, 2 tablespoons sesame oil, ground white pepper, and kosher salt. Mix well to coat the meat evenly and let it marinate for at least 15-20 minutes to develop flavor.
- Prepare the Vegetables: While the steak marinates, slice the carrots thinly on a bias, halve the zucchinis lengthwise and cut into half moons, and slice the mushrooms. Set aside.
- Cook the Steak: Heat a large skillet or hibachi-style pan over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter. Once melted and sizzling, add the marinated steak chunks. Cook for 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the steak is browned on all sides and cooked to your preferred doneness. Remove the steak from the pan and set aside, keeping warm.
- Sauté the Vegetables: In the same pan, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter along with 1 teaspoon sesame oil. Add the sliced carrots, zucchinis, and mushrooms. Sprinkle with garlic powder and sauté the vegetables for 4-6 minutes until tender but still crisp.
- Add Seasoning: Return the cooked steak to the pan with the vegetables. Drizzle 1-2 tablespoons of teriyaki or Japanese BBQ sauce over the mixture and toss everything together to coat well and heat through for another 1-2 minutes.
- Serve: Plate the steak and vegetable mixture over warm fried rice. Serve with a side of store-bought Yum Yum sauce for dipping to complete the hibachi steak bowl experience.
