Description
This easy hibachi steak recipe features tender steak infused with aromatic ginger-garlic butter and fresh scallions, perfect for busy weeknights. It promises a sizzling experience at home with rich flavors and simple preparation.
Ingredients
- 1 lb (450g) sirloin, ribeye, or flank steak, thinly sliced against the grain
- 4 Tbsp (56g) unsalted butter, softened (or olive oil for a lighter option)
- 1.5 Tbsp (15g) fresh ginger, finely grated
- 4 cloves (20g) garlic, minced
- 0.5 cup (20g) scallions, chopped, plus more for garnish
- 0.25 cup (60ml) low-sodium soy sauce (use gluten-free tamari for a gluten-free option)
- 1 Tbsp (15ml) toasted sesame oil
- 1 Tbsp (15ml) rice vinegar
- 1 tsp (4g) granulated sugar (optional for low-carb meals)
- 1 Tbsp (15ml) vegetable oil
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Prep the Steak: Pat your 1 lb (450g) steak dry with paper towels for a good sear. Slice thinly, about 0.25 inch (6mm), against the grain for tenderness. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
- Make Ginger-Garlic Butter: In a small bowl, combine 4 Tbsp (56g) softened unsalted butter with 1.5 Tbsp (15g) grated fresh ginger and 4 minced garlic cloves. Mix well until aromatic and fully combined.
- Sear the Steak: Heat a large 10-inch cast iron skillet over medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes until smoking hot. Add 1 Tbsp (15ml) vegetable oil. Add steak slices in a single layer; cook for 1-2 minutes per side until beautifully browned. Cook in batches if needed (If the pan isn’t hot enough, the steak might steam instead of sear and become tough; ensure a strong sizzle for that perfect crust).
- Deglaze and Sauce: Briefly remove steak. Add 0.25 cup (60ml) low-sodium soy sauce, 1 Tbsp (15ml) toasted sesame oil, 1 Tbsp (15ml) rice vinegar, and 1 tsp sugar (optional for low-carb meals) to the hot pan. Bring to a quick simmer for about 30 seconds, scraping up browned bits.
- Finish and Serve: Return all steak to the pan, tossing to coat in the shimmering sauce. Stir in 2 Tbsp of ginger-garlic butter until it melts and creates a glossy coating. Scatter with 0.5 cup (20g) chopped scallions and serve immediately.
Notes
Ensure the pan is smoking hot for a good sear; avoid overcrowding. For a low-carb option, skip the sugar. Extra ginger-garlic butter can be stored in the fridge for future use.
