Notes

  • Nutritional Info – Please keep in mind that nutritional information provided is only a rough estimate and can vary greatly based on the products used.
  • Leftover chilled rice. Leftover chilled rice works great for the hibachi fried rice recipe. Chilled rice works great because rice dries out in the fridge making them ideal for stir-frying. Freshly cooked rice is soft and is not ideal for this recipe. It will get mushy when stir-fried.
  • Large pan. Ideally, a hot plate or griddle is ideal to make hibachi fried rice. Of course, homemade version versions aren’t made on the hot griddle. Use a wok or big wide skillet. The surface area should be big so you can toss rice around so it can stir-fry and not steam in the pan.
  • High heat. Cook everything on high heat moving it quickly and frequently. Do not let veggies sit in wok steam cook.
  • Best quality soy sauce. Use the best quality soy sauce, fried rice taste depends on it. Choose low sodium soy sauce, it’s less salty and better for health.
