Steak and Shrimp Hibachi

Sunday, July 17, 2022
This Steak and Shrimp Hibachi is our alternative cooking method when we can't get to a 5-star Japanese steakhouse that will still have that big bold Asian delicious flavors right in your own kitchen plus included is the famous dipping Yum-Yum sauce recipe!

Hibachi meaning "fire bowl" is typically found in gourmet-style Japanese restaurants that feature vegetables, meats seafood, rice and cooked right in front of you on a firey grill and their cooking artistry right in front of you with several folks around a big table.

Our easy recipe for hibachi includes easy cooking methods for the stovetop,  grilled outdoors, and air fryer in just a few steps the only thing missing is the fiery show and big flames to put out.

The meat, shrimp, and any vegetables you prefer in 3 different steps all in the same pan with some Asian flavors like soy and terrifying sauce.

Indoors never is going to be that great experience on that fiery grill at the restaurant cooked in front of you, but this will still be a super delicious homemade hibachi.

Another bonus in this recipe is you can use chicken, pork, beef, and any shellfish you prefer, and adapt the vegetables and style of rice you prefer.

If you have never tried hibachi this is a great place to start making it inexpensively at home to see if you like it.

Our recipe is super easy and served usually with any style of rice or Japanese-style noodles for a side dish with cooked vegetables we have several suggestions below for you to choose from or try our Japanese Steakhouse Clear Mushroom Soup recipe.

Hibachi Made Easy:



This meal will burst with Asian flavors no matter which way you decide to cook your ingredients.

Japanese restaurant chefs squirt a mixture of saki, soy sauce, and butter or sesame oil for the flame effects (and unless you're an experienced outdoor master of fireballs we don't recommend this method to try).

During the warmer months, we entertain a lot outdoors and hibachi on the grill depending on the style grill you have, this can be a show outdoors as well for a fun gathering.

Our yum yum sauce homemade sauce (recipe below) is used for dipping all the hibachi-cooked meats, seafood, and vegetables and is made in minutes.

If you love all the flavors we mentioned, let's get this hibachi meal started with the easy instructions below.


We also love this with oriental chicken salad, egg rolls, and almond cookies for dessert!

Tips and Ideas



This can be made ahead of time with no problem just make the meat and seafood fresh.


This hibachi made in your own home is so much more economical than the pricy restaurants and tastes just as good if not better depending on the quality of steak and seafood you purchased!


To save time you can use all store-bought premade sides IE: plain white rice, frozen stir fry Asian vegetables, quick cooking noodles, and bottled yum yum dipping sauce.


If using chicken always ensure the chicken is cooked all the way through and use an instant-read thermometer the internal temperature should be 165 degrees in the thickest part.


Also, as an alternative for those who aren't fond of rice try our, Steakhouse Baked PotatoesCorn on the Cob , or Cauliflower Rice!
