For the Sautéed Vegetables

  • 2 medium carrots thinly sliced

  • 8 ounces mushrooms quartered

For Assembly

  • 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce

Instructions
 

  • In a medium bowl, combine mirin, garlic, ginger, and sesame oil.
  • Add the cubed sirloin steak and toss until evenly coated.
  • Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to develop.
  • While the steak marinates, wash and prepare the vegetables by slicing the carrots and zucchini and quartering the mushrooms.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add a small drizzle of oil.
  • Add the vegetables and sauté for 5 to 7 minutes until tender but still slightly crisp.
  • Increase the heat to medium-high.
  • Add the marinated steak and cook for 4 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it reaches your preferred doneness.
  • Combine the cooked steak and vegetables in the skillet.
  • Divide the fried rice among serving bowls.
  • Top with the steak and vegetable mixture.
  • Drizzle with soy sauce and serve immediately.
  • These Hibachi Steak Bowls are best enjoyed hot and fresh for maximum flavor.

Notes

  • Mirin can be omitted if unavailable.
  • A splash of apple juice mixed with a small amount of rice vinegar can provide a similar sweet balance.
  • Garnish with sliced green onions or sesame seeds for extra flavor.
  • Serve with a side salad or miso soup for a complete meal.
