Ingredients
  

For the Steak:

  • ½ tbsp olive oil
  • 1 ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp pepper
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp paprika
  • ½ tsp oregano
  • ½ tsp thyme
For the Veggies:

  • 1 head broccoli cut into florets
  • 1 cup sliced mushrooms
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce or coconut aminos
For the Fried Rice:
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • ½ white onion finely diced
  • 1 large carrot diced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 3 cups cooked and chilled rice
  • 3 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce or coconut aminos
  • 1 green onion thinly sliced
For the Yum Yum Sauce:

  • ¼ tsp paprika

Method
 

  1. Cook the Rice (ahead of time): Make rice in advance and chill in the fridge for at least 2 hours (overnight works best). Cold rice fries up best!
  2. Cook the Steak: Preheat air fryer to 400°F. Toss steak cubes with olive oil and seasonings. Cook for 6–7 minutes, shaking halfway through, until browned and medium to medium-well. Rest for 3 minutes before serving.
  3. Make the Veggies: In a large skillet or wok, melt the butter with the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add zucchini, onion, broccoli, and mushrooms. Stir-fry for 5–6 minutes until just tender but still crisp. Stir in garlic and cook 30 seconds, then drizzle soy sauce over the vegetables. Toss to coat and set aside.
  4. Make the Fried Rice: In the same skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add onion and carrot; cook 3 minutes until softened. Add garlic and cook 30 seconds more. Stir in chilled rice, breaking up clumps, and fry 4–5 minutes until hot and lightly crisp. Add soy sauce and toss well. Stir in green onions.
  5. Mix the Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together melted butter, mayo, ketchup, sriracha, rice vinegar, soy sauce, paprika, garlic powder, sugar, and a splash of water until smooth and pourable.
  6. Assemble the Bowls: Add a scoop of fried rice to each bowl. Top with steak bites and sautéed veggies, then drizzle generously with the creamy hibachi sauce. Serve warm.

Notes

  • Cold rice is key! Fresh rice will turn mushy, so chill it for at least a few hours (overnight is best). If you didn't plan ahead, then make the rice, spread it onto a sheet pan, and cover in plastic wrap. Then, place it in the freezer for about 20 minutes or until cold.
  • Preheat the air fryer! The key to those perfectly cooked steak bites is to preheat the air fryer to 400F. The steak should sizzle when it hits the air fryer basket!
  • Use real butter. This is very important when cooking anything a hibachi bowl. Butter is what they use in the restaurants to give everything that rich flavor! Luckily, we use a bit less at home so it isn't as unhealthy.
  • Adjust the sauce. If the sauce thickens in the fridge, just whisk in a splash of water before serving!
