Hibachi Dinner: Rice, Meat, Zucchini, and Soup.



Hibachi Dinner!



Yesterday, I made Steak and Shrimp Hibachi for Josh's birthday dinner! It still smells like a Hibachi restaurant in our apartment! haha! This actually pretty easy to make, but it is time consuming! I will show you how and what you need to make all that is part of this tasty dinner! I also made Miso soup. Most Hibachi restaurants I've been to give you the onion and mushroom soup; but the ones I have been to out here have given us Miso. For those who don't know what it is, it's a soup with tofu soup. That might sound gross, and I thought that at once, but its pretty good. So starting with the rice heres how you make a Hibachi Dinner.


Fried Rice!

INGREDIENTS:
  1. cups cooked Rice, cooled. (I used minute rice)
  2. 1/2 cup of Onion, chopped in tiny, thin pieces.
  3. 1 tablespoon of Olive Oil.
  4. 1/4 cup of frozen Peas.
  5. 1/4 cup of frozen Carrots.
  6. 1 Egg.
  7. 2 tablespoons of Butter.
  8. 2 tablespoons of Soy Sauce.


DIRECTIONS:
  1. Put your oil in a skillet with the heat on medium.
  2. Put your peas, carrots, and onion in the skillet and sauté for about 5 minutes.
  3. Move you vegetables to the side of the skillet and add you egg. Scramble with your cooking utensil.
  4. Add your rice and butter, mix with vegetables and egg. Sauté for about 5 minutes or until butter is melted.
  5. Add soy sauce and stir in.
EXTRAS FOR THE RICE:

    You can remove the rice from the skillet and put in a pan with a lid on it to keep it warm. The closer you get done with the rest of the food you can put the pan on the stove on low. Also, if you buy just one really large onion thats all you will need for then entire meal. For the rice 1/2 cup onion is usually only 1/4 of the extra large onion.



Zucchini! 

INGREDIENTS:
  1. 2 tablespoons of Vegetable Oil.
  2. 1 medium Onion, chopped thinly.(or just use the rest of the extra large onion.)
  3. 2 medium Zucchinis cut into thin strips. (i cut them in half, then the halves in halves.)
  4. 2 tablespoons of Teriyaki Sauce. 
  5. Black Pepper to taste.
DIRECTIONS:


     Warm the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in onions, and cook 5 minutes. Add zucchini, and cook, stirring, about 1 minute. Stir in teriyaki sauce and soy sauce. Cook until zucchini are tender. Stir in ground pepper.

EXTRAS FOR ZUCCHINI:

     I cover them with lid so they get all the moisture needed and to not let the liquids spit all over the stove. Once they are tender you can just keep the heat on low until ready to eat. Also, you can add sesame seeds if you want to. I usually don't unless I have some around.


                                                                     
                                             Hibachi Meat!      

                                            you can do this with steak, chicken, and shrimp.


INGREDIENTS:
  1. Chicken, Meat, Shrimp, or all of the above!
  2. Soy Sauce.
  3. Teriyaki Sauce.
  4. 1 tablespoon of Olive Oil.
DIRECTIONS:
  1. Heat your oil in a skillet on medium heat.
  2. Cut your meat into 1 inch cubes. If you have shrimp, de-tail.
  3. Put your meat in the skillet. Add the Soy Sauce and Teriyaki Sauce. Put enough to fill and small layer to fill the bottom of the skillet. Cook until done.

Miso Soup!  

I found this at Whole Foods. Before you think, "ew..vegan? Organic?.." haha! It was the probably the best I had. Plus I couldn't find it anywhere else. All you need was 8oz of hot water!


EXTRAS FOR THE MEAL:

You can use any kind of Soy and Teriyaki Sauce but I use a specific kinds. I've tried many types these two are the best:

  1. I can't wait to try this....It looks so so so good. I will be leaving out the egg, meat and shrimp...just going to do extra veggies, but so excited to try. I have seen the miso soup at Earth Fare, but have been afraid to try it. I have been vegan for almost a year now, but tofu still scares me lol. So glad to know it is good! Thanks for your hard work putting this together!
