Ingredients
Scale
Proteins:
- 1.5 lbs beef sirloin or ribeye
Vegetables:
- 1 zucchini
- 1 cup mushrooms
- 0.5 onion
Seasonings and Oils:
- 5 tablespoons soy sauce
- 3 tablespoons sesame oil
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1 teaspoon ginger
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon sugar
Instructions
- Prepare a mise en place by cutting 1 ½ lbs sirloin steak into 1-inch cubes. Slice zucchini, mushrooms, and onion into consistent pieces. Measure all seasonings and oils beforehand.
- Heat a large skillet to 400°F (204°C). Pour 1 tablespoon sesame oil across cooking surface. Arrange steak cubes in a single layer, ensuring they do not touch. Sear precisely 2 minutes per side for medium-rare.
- Sprinkle 2 minced garlic cloves and 1 teaspoon grated ginger over searing meat. After meat reaches desired temperature, add 2 tablespoons butter and 2 tablespoons soy sauce. Toss rapidly to coat evenly.
- Transfer steak to a warm plate. In the same skillet, add another tablespoon sesame oil and butter. Sauté ½ sliced onion, 1 sliced zucchini, and 1 cup mushrooms for 4-5 minutes until edges caramelize.
- Create a quick pan sauce by melting 1 tablespoon butter. Add 1 teaspoon minced garlic and ½ teaspoon sugar. Pour in 1 tablespoon soy sauce and 1 tablespoon sesame oil. Simmer 45-60 seconds.
- Arrange sautéed vegetables beside steak cubes. Drizzle entire dish with prepared sauce. Garnish with 1 tablespoon sesame seeds if desired. Serve immediately while hot.
Notes
- Choose a tender cut like ribeye or New York strip for the best flavor and texture.
- Marinate the steak for at least 30 minutes to enhance tenderness and add depth to the taste.
- Use a cast-iron skillet or flat griddle to get that authentic hibachi-style sear and caramelization.
- Cut the meat against the grain after cooking to ensure each slice is juicy and easy to chew.
