Ingredients
Steak Marinade
- 1½ lbs NY Strip Steak
- 2 tbs low sodium soy sauce (or tamari)
- 2 tbs sesame oil (or olive oil)
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbs ginger paste
- 1 tbs Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tbs honey (optional)
Fried Rice
- 6 cups cooked + cooled Basmati rice
- 2 tbs sesame oil (or olive oil)
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 3 eggs
- 12 oz bag frozen vegetables, thawed
- 1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
- 2 tbs butter
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbs ginger paste
- 1 tbs sesame seeds
Condiments
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup ketchup
- 1 tbs Sriracha
- Salt to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the Steak Marinade: In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce, 2 tablespoons sesame oil, minced garlic, ginger paste, Worcestershire sauce, and optional honey. This mixture will create a flavorful marinade for your NY Strip Steak.
- Marinate and Cook the Steak: Coat the 1½ lbs NY Strip Steak evenly with the marinade. Heat a griddle or two pans on high heat for 4 minutes, then cook the steak to your desired doneness, typically 3-5 minutes per side for medium rare depending on thickness. Set aside to rest.
- Start the Fried Rice: On the same hot griddle or pans, add 2 tablespoons sesame oil. Add the cooled Basmati rice, diced onion, and cracked eggs directly onto the pan. Toss and mix continuously for 3 minutes allowing the eggs to scramble and the ingredients to incorporate.
- Add Vegetables and Flavorings: Incorporate the thawed frozen vegetables into the rice mixture. Stir in 1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce, 2 tablespoons butter, minced garlic, ginger paste, and sesame seeds. Continue cooking and stirring for 5 minutes until a golden brown crust forms on the rice, creating that signature hibachi texture and flavor.
- Final Taste and Serve: Season the fried rice with salt to taste if needed. Optionally, mix mayonnaise, ketchup, and Sriracha to create a spicy hibachi sauce to serve alongside the steak and fried rice for added flavor. Slice the steak and plate alongside the fried rice for a complete hibachi style meal.
Notes
- Use day-old or cooled rice to prevent sogginess and achieve a better fried rice texture.
- Feel free to substitute Basmati rice with Jasmine rice for a slightly different aroma and texture.
- Adjust the honey in the marinade according to your desired level of sweetness.
- Vegetables can be fresh or frozen, just be sure to thaw frozen veggies before cooking.
- If you prefer a spicier dish, increase the amount of Sriracha in the condiment mix.
- Make sure the griddle or pan is very hot before cooking rice to get that signature golden crust.
