Description
Make restaurant-style hibachi vegetables at home using a simple, savory soy sauce glaze. This recipe features mixed vegetables cooked quickly over high heat.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 medium yellow onion, cut into wedges
- 1 medium zucchini, sliced
- 1 cup sliced mushrooms (cremini or white button)
- 1 medium carrot, thinly sliced on a bias
- 1/2 cup broccoli florets
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
- 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 2 tbsp mirin (sweet rice wine)
- 1 tbsp water
- 1 tsp brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp toasted sesame oil
Instructions
- Prepare the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, mirin, water, brown sugar, and sesame oil. Set aside.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat until shimmering.
- Add the onions and carrots to the hot pan. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently.
- Add the zucchini and mushrooms. Continue to cook for 3 minutes, stirring constantly to prevent burning.
- Add the broccoli florets and cook for 1 minute more.
- Push the vegetables to one side of the pan. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the cleared space and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Toss the garlic and ginger with the vegetables.
- Pour the prepared soy sauce glaze over the vegetables. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens slightly and coats the vegetables evenly.
- Remove from heat immediately and serve.
Notes
- For best results, cook the vegetables in batches if your pan is not large enough to avoid overcrowding, which causes steaming instead of searing.
- You can substitute the vegetables with others you prefer, such as bell peppers or snow peas.
- If you do not have mirin, you can substitute it with 1 tablespoon of dry white wine mixed with 1 teaspoon of sugar.
