This recipe is a full hibachi dinner at home! With restaurant-style sautéed veggies and fried rice, this hibachi recipe is served with a spicy mustard dipping sauce that really transports you to the Japanese steakhouse!
Chef’s Tips
- The fried rice was originally created as a way to use leftover old rice. To make hibachi rice, use rice you’ve made ahead of time instead of freshly cooked rice. For fried hibachi rice that tastes even more like restaurant-quality, use precooked rice bought at the grocery store.
- If you are grain-free, you can easily substitute the rice with cauliflower rice.
- Lightly toasting sesame seeds for the mustard sauce isn’t necessary, but it will enhance the flavor.

Notes
**Please use vegetable oil as needed! I provide measurements in case you’re cooking each component separately. If you are using the same griddle, skillet, etc., you may not need to add oil with the addition of each meal component. Use only as needed.
When seasoning with salt to taste, keep in mind that you’ll be using soy sauce as well. Soy sauce will add sodium too.
I used a cast iron griddle for this meal to cook a couple of components at once. However, a skillet, wok, and pan may be used as well. Use what you have.
If you make your own Garlic Butter, it will last for up to one week in the refrigerator. Store tightly in plastic wrap or a sealed container.
