Hibachi Steak and Shrimp

This fabulous Hibachi Steak and Shrimp dinner combine all of the wonderful flavors of hibachi grilled foods! Tender shrimp, medium rare NY strip cut into bite-size chunks, and hibachi vegetables with the addictive hibachi dipping sauces make it a complete hibachi night at home!!

Hibachi Steak and Shrimp is one of my favorite hibachi dinners regardless of whether or not it's in one of the Japanese steakhouse restaurants or my own home!

I've picked up most of my hibachi cooking from Benihana chefs and referenced the many recipes that were posted on their website years ago. When I make these meals, they are pretty spot-on for not having that wonderful teppanyaki grill that hibachi chefs are cooking on.

❔ How To Make Hibachi Cooking Oil

This base cooking oil used by hibachi chefs is a combination of four basic ingredients. Hibachi cooking oil is made with sesame seed oil, olive oil, rice cooking wine, and soy sauce.

Combine the two oils, rice cooking wine, and the soy sauce in a sealable container like a jar or squeeze bottle for ease of storage and use. Shake to combine before using.

🤔 What Kind of Steak Is Used For Hibachi Steak

Typically, either a sirloin steak or strip steak (NY strip) is used for making hibachi steak dishes at your favorite Japanese steakhouse restaurants.

Since there is more marbling (white fat throughout the meat) in a strip steak, it is my recommended cut for making hibachi steak at home. That way, when you cut your meat into familiar bite-size chunks, the meat is more likely to stay tender.

🥘 Ingredients

Hibachi Cooking Oil

• 1 tablespoon Sesame Seed Oil
• 2 ½ tablespoon Olive Oil (extra virgin)
• ¼ cup Rice Cooking Wine
• 2 tablespoon Soy Sauce

Hibachi Steak

• 1 teaspoon Hibachi Cooking Oil (see above)

• 1 teaspoon Hibachi Cooking Oil (see above)

🔪 Step-by-Step Instructions

How To Make Hibachi Steak

1. Bring a large skillet or griddle to medium-high heat, or bring an electric griddle to 360ºF (182ºC).
2. Add your hibachi cooking oil to the heated skillet. The oil should be shimmering when fully heated.
3. Cut steak into bite-size cubes and place it into your heated skillet with lemon juice. *It is up to your personal preferences if you want to cut the steak(s) into bite-size chunks prior to or after cooking. If you want to cook your strip steak or sirloin as a whole, cook for about 4 minutes on the first side then flip and cook an additional 4 minutes on the second side for medium-rare. Remove from heat and allow to rest for 4 minutes before cutting into cubes.
4. Cook steak until seared on all sides and done to taste about 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, if desired.

Serve warm with Hibachi Mustard Sauce.
