Hibachi Fried Rice
Set all prepared ingredients near workspace as this is cooked on high heat. Using a large wok is preferable, but a large skillet or frying pan will work. Bring wok or skillet to high heat with hibachi cooking oil blend or alternative ( cottonseed, canola, peanut oil ).
Cook the egg in the heated oil, quickly breaking the cooked egg apart and moving to the sides once cooked. Add vegetables and saute for about 2-3 minutes. *Reduce heat in small increments as needed if cooking too hot.
Heat butter for 10-20 seconds in the microwave and stir in the soy sauce ( add garlic or garlic powder, if desired ).
Add the cooled rice to the wok or frying pan, then the butter sauce. Fry for an additional 5 minutes, or until the rice and vegetables are well combined, coated with butter, and everything is heated through.
Serve immediately, garnish with sliced green onion or sesame seeds.
Notes
To Store: Any cooked rice should be carefully stored to prevent bacterial growth. Allow the hibachi fried rice to fully cool (spread in a thin layer if needed), then transfer it into a shallow airtight storage container.Alternatively, the cooled rice can also be stored in a plastic storage bag. Just be sure to squeeze out as much air as possible. Refrigerate for up to 3-4 days.To Freeze: Spread cooled fried rice on a baking sheet and freeze for 1-2 hours. Transfer into a freezer storage container or freezer storage bag and freeze for up to 3 months.To Reheat: The best way to reheat foods, in general, is typically the same way that you cook them. That said, returning your leftover hibachi fried rice to a hot skillet with a bit of my hibachi cooking oil is the ideal reheating method for this recipe.Note that any fried rice should only be reheated once. Portion out what you need, or discard any remaining reheated leftovers.
