Hibachi Chicken Recipe
We love going out for hibachi, it’s such a delicious meal and also a super fun dinner experience! But it can be pricey, so we’ve found a way to make Hibachi Chicken right at home.
This chicken recipe couldn’t be easier to make, and only has a few ingredients, so we do end up making it quite a lot. Our boys love this chicken over rice or ramen noodles, add a side of steamed broccoli and dinner is done!
How Do You Make Hibachi Chicken At Home?
There are a few tips to making this Hibachi Chicken taste like it came from a restaurant. Lots of garlic and lots of butter, for one. You’re going to think it’s too much butter when you’re starting off this chicken recipe – it’s not.
Just make it as is, please. You’re going to love the flavor you get!
Another tip is to make sure you use a really, really hot skillet. A wok would work great too if you have one, but a nice large skillet that won’t overcrowd the chicken pieces will work just fine, too.
If you don’t have a large enough skillet, cook the chicken in batches so that it gets a nice dark brown sear on the outside. Overcrowding the pan won’t result in a good sear, so make sure you’re chicken pieces have plenty of room around them!
The last tip to making authentic tasting Hibachi Chicken at home is to make our Yum Yum Sauce to go along with it! Drizzle it right on top or use it as a dipping sauce on the side.
We love Yum Yum Sauce so much we keep it in our refrigerator at all times. Not only is it delicious on this chicken, but it’s equally as good on steak and shrimp too! Slather it on your favorite sandwich or use it as a topping for hamburgers. We use it on pretty much everything.
Can You Make This Recipe With Steak Too?
Yes you can! Just follow the directions in this recipe and swap out steak or even shrimp too! Shrimp will take just a couple of minutes on each side so make sure you don’t overcook them. If we’re making chicken, steak and shrimp we do make them separately so they all cook to the right temperature.
