Description

The BEST Hibachi Fried Rice recipe! With garlic butter, rice, egg and onion – this recipe is quick, easy and packed with flavor!


Ingredients

Scale

Garlic Butter:

  • 23 tablespoons butter, room temp (reg or dairy-free)
  • 12 teaspoons garlic, minced

Hibachi Fried Rice:

  • 12 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (sub avocado oil)
  • 1/2 sweet yellow onion, diced
  • 2 eggs, whisked
  • 12 tablespoons garlic butter
  • 4 cups cooked rice, preferably day-old*
  • 12 tablespoons soy sauce, more as desired
  • 1/4 cup green onions, sliced

Instructions

  1. Prep: With a recipe like this, regardless of whether you are cooking on a flat top (like a Blackstone) or large cast iron skillet – everything cooks pretty quick so it really helps if everything is prepped and ready to go before you start cooking anything. 
  2. Garlic Butter: Combine Garlic Butter ingredients in a small bowl. Set aside.
  3. Onions + Eggs: Bring flat top (or cast iron skillet) to medium-high heat. Add a tablespoon of oil. Add onions and move around until softened. Add whisked eggs and move around until cooked. Add 1 tablespoon garlic butter and let melt.
  4. Add Rice: Add rice and top with soy sauce. Move everything around until it is mixed together and rice is warmed through. Feel free to add another tablespoon of garlic butter and season with any salt and pepper you desire. Fold in the green onions and then transfer to a plate. Set aside. 
  5. Serve: We love serving this alongside our Hibachi Chicken and some Yum Yum Sauce

Notes

  • *Day-Old Rice: day-old rice just cooks up better when making fried rice, it’s recommended but not required.
  • Blackstone: we used a flat top/Blackstone, but you can definitely also just use a large cast iron skillet
  • Hibachi Fried Rice vs. Blackstone Fried Rice: we have another Blackstone Fried Rice on the site and the hibachi version is much simpler and is inspired by the rice served at your local hibachi restaurant. The Blackstone Fried Rice is packed with more veggies, includes the option for chicken (or steak) and is served with a Fried Rice Sauce
