Chicken
- 1 batch Sesame Soy Chicken (prepared as per recipe)
Vegetables & Cooking Fats
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
- 3 medium carrots, thinly cut on a bias
- 2 medium zucchinis, sliced in half lengthwise & then cut into half moons
- 4–5 ounces sliced mushrooms (baby bella preferred)
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- Kosher salt & fresh ground black pepper to taste
For Serving
- Store-bought cooked fried rice

Instructions
- Prep & cook sesame soy chicken: Prepare the sesame soy chicken according to the referenced recipe instructions. Once cooked, slice the chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces for easy eating.
- Sauté veggies: Heat the unsalted butter and toasted sesame oil together in a wok or large skillet over medium heat until hot. Add the thinly sliced carrots, zucchini half moons, and sliced mushrooms. Cook the vegetables, stirring and tossing frequently, until they become tender and develop a light golden brown color, about 10-15 minutes. Season with garlic powder, kosher salt, and black pepper to taste. Remove from heat once done.
- Build the hibachi chicken bowls & serve: Divide the cooked sesame soy chicken and sautéed vegetables evenly into shallow bowls. Add a serving of store-bought cooked fried rice beside or underneath. Drizzle each bowl with Yum Yum sauce or serve the sauce on the side for dipping. Serve immediately and enjoy a homemade hibachi-style meal.
Notes
- Use baby bella mushrooms for best flavor, but any mushroom variety will work.
- Adjust garlic powder and salt/pepper according to your taste preferences.
- Yum Yum sauce can be homemade or store-bought depending on convenience.
- Store-bought fried rice saves time but homemade fried rice can enhance freshness.
- For a gluten-free option, ensure the sesame soy chicken and Yum Yum sauce are gluten-free.
