03 - 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce

05 - 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
06 - 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

08 - 1 tablespoon sesame oil
09 - 1 tablespoon neutral oil, such as avocado or canola oil
10 - 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
11 - 3 cloves garlic, minced

For the savory fried rice

12 - 4 cups (600 g) cold cooked jasmine rice
13 - 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
14 - 1 tablespoon neutral oil
15 - 1/2 medium yellow onion, diced
16 - 1/2 cup (65 g) diced carrots
17 - 1/2 cup (70 g) frozen peas
18 - 3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce, plus more to taste
19 - 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
20 - 2 green onions, sliced
21 - 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil

For the hibachi vegetables and serving

22 - 1 medium zucchini, halved and sliced
23 - 8 oz (225 g) mushrooms, sliced
24 - 1/2 medium yellow onion, sliced
25 - 1 tablespoon neutral oil
26 - 1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
27 - 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
28 - 1/2 cup (120 ml) yum yum sauce, for serving

# Instructions:

01 - Pat the steak and shrimp dry. Toss the steak with 1 tablespoon soy sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, half the salt, half the pepper, and half the sesame oil. Toss the shrimp with the remaining soy sauce, salt, pepper, and sesame oil.
02 - Heat a large griddle or skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon neutral oil, then cook zucchini, mushrooms, and sliced onion with 1 tablespoon soy sauce for 4-6 minutes until browned and just tender. Transfer to a plate.
03 - Add a little oil to the hot skillet. Pour in the beaten eggs and scramble just until softly set, about 30-45 seconds. Move the eggs to a plate.
04 - Add 1 tablespoon oil to the skillet. Add diced onion and carrots and cook for 2 minutes. Add cold rice, peas, 3 tablespoons soy sauce, and 1 tablespoon butter. Stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until hot and lightly toasted, then fold in the eggs, green onions, and toasted sesame oil.
05 - Add 1 tablespoon neutral oil to the hot skillet. Spread the steak in a single layer and cook for 3-5 minutes, stirring once or twice, until browned and cooked to your preferred doneness. Transfer to a plate.
06 - Add the shrimp in a single layer and cook for 1-2 minutes per side until pink and opaque. Add the steak back to the skillet with 2 tablespoons butter and minced garlic. Toss for 30-60 seconds until glossy and fragrant.
07 - Plate the fried rice with the hibachi vegetables, steak, and shrimp. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and extra green onions, then serve with yum yum sauce on the side.

# Good to know:

01 - Cold day-old rice gives the best fried rice texture.
02 - Prep all ingredients before heating the skillet.
03 - Cook proteins in batches if your skillet is smaller than 12 inches.
