Description
Flavorful Blackstone hibachi chicken cooked on a hot griddle with sautéed vegetables and savory fried rice, finished with green onions and sesame seeds.
Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons teriyaki sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 zucchini, sliced
- 1 cup onion, sliced
- 2 cups cooked rice, preferably cold
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- 1 cup mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Salt to taste
- Black pepper to taste
- Sliced green onions for garnish
- Sesame seeds for garnish
Instructions
1. In a mixing bowl combine the diced chicken, soy sauce, teriyaki sauce, and sesame oil. Mix well and allow the chicken to marinate for 15–30 minutes.
2. Preheat a Blackstone griddle or large flat-top pan over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil.
3. Add the marinated chicken to the griddle and cook for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until fully cooked and lightly caramelized. Remove and set aside.
4. Add another tablespoon of vegetable oil to the griddle and sauté the sliced zucchini and onion for about 3–4 minutes until tender but still slightly crisp. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
5. Push the chicken and vegetables to one side of the griddle. Pour the beaten eggs onto the other side and scramble until cooked.
6. Add the cold cooked rice, mixed vegetables, and minced garlic to the eggs and stir together for 2–3 minutes until heated through.
7. Return the cooked chicken and vegetables to the rice and gently stir everything together to combine flavors.
8. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.
9. Serve hot topped with sliced green onions and sesame seeds.
Notes
Using cold day-old rice helps create the best texture for fried rice.
Chicken thighs provide extra juiciness but chicken breast works well too.
You can add mushrooms, bell peppers, or broccoli for more vegetables.
Cook everything on high heat for the classic hibachi-style flavor.
