Description

Sizzling Hibachi Chicken brings Japanese steakhouse magic right to home kitchens with perfect seasoned protein and restaurant-style flair. Simple ingredients and quick cooking techniques deliver a mouthwatering meal you’ll love preparing and devouring.


Ingredients

Scale

Main Protein:

  • 1 lb (454 grams) boneless skinless chicken breasts

Sauces and Seasonings:

  • 1.5 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1.5 tablespoons teriyaki sauce/mirin
  • 1 teaspoon garlic (minced)

Cooking Ingredients:

  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 0.25 teaspoon sesame oil (optional)
  • Pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Whisk together sauce components and reserve at room temperature for later use.
  2. Warm a skillet over medium-high heat, melting butter until it begins to shimmer and releasing minced garlic’s aromatic essence for approximately 30 seconds.
  3. Introduce chicken pieces into the skillet, ensuring each morsel gets coated with the buttery garlic infusion.
  4. Stream prepared sauce over chicken, gently tossing to distribute flavors comprehensively.
  5. Execute continuous stirring and sautéing for 5-6 minutes, allowing sauce to reduce and chicken to develop golden-brown caramelized edges.
  6. Create a glossy finish by delicately drizzling sesame oil across the chicken for enhanced depth of flavor.
  7. Transfer immediately to serving plates, accompanying with steamed hibachi rice, classic hibachi noodles, or grilled seasonal vegetables for a complete culinary experience.

Notes

  • Marinate chicken beforehand for deeper flavor infusion and more tender meat.
  • Use high-quality butter for richer taste and better searing of chicken.
  • Adjust sauce sweetness by reducing or increasing honey according to personal preference.
  • Choose boneless, skinless chicken thighs for juicier and more flavorful results compared to chicken breast.
