Ingredients
Steak Marinade
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup Chinese cooking wine
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon minced ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
- 4 teaspoons soybean oil
Steak and Mushrooms
- 20 ounces sirloin steak
- 8 large white mushrooms sliced thick
- 4 dashes salt
- 4 dashes ground black pepper
Instructions
- Combine all marinade ingredients and place the steak in the marinade.
- Marinate the steak at least 1 hour before cooking.
- Remove the steak from the marinade and cut it into bite-size pieces.
- Heat a skillet to medium-high.
- Add oil and then the steak pieces. Stir occasionally as they are cooking so they will be cooked on all sides.
- When the steak pieces are close to being cooked through, add the mushrooms. Add more soybean oil if needed.
- Season steak and mushrooms with salt and pepper.
- Cook until the steak is done and the mushrooms are tender.

Notes
- For the most authentic Benihana experience, invest in a large, flat-top griddle or cast-iron surface that can achieve high heat. The restaurant's signature sizzle comes from cooking at temperatures between 450-500°F, which creates perfect caramelization. Also, don't be afraid to salt generously right before serving—this final seasoning makes all the flavors pop, just like at the restaurant.
