To Prepare the Beef and Vegetables

  1. Place 1 lb thinly sliced beef (chuck or ribeye) in a bowl and season with 2 Tbsp red wine, ¼ tsp Diamond Crystal kosher salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Set aside.
  2. Cut 1½ onions in half lengthwise, and cut each half into thin strips widthwise. Cut off the end of 3.5 oz shimeji mushrooms and separate them into small clusters. Cut 4 button mushrooms into thin slices.

To Cook the Hayashi Rice

  1. Heat 1 Tbsp olive oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat. When it‘s hot, add the beef.
  2. Sauté until no longer pink. Then, transfer the beef to a bowl.
