03 - 1 tbsp sesame oil
04 - 1 tbsp mirin or dry sherry

06 - 3 cups cooked, chilled white rice (preferably day-old)

→ Garnish

15 - Extra green onions, sliced

# How to Make It:

01 - Combine steak cubes, soy sauce, sesame oil, mirin, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Let marinate for 10-15 minutes to absorb flavors.
02 - Preheat Blackstone griddle to medium-high heat. Add 1 tbsp vegetable oil and spread evenly across the cooking surface.
03 - Place marinated steak pieces on the hot griddle. Sear for 2-3 minutes per side until browned and cooked to desired doneness. Remove steak and set aside on a plate.
04 - Add remaining vegetable oil to the griddle. Pour in beaten eggs and scramble until just cooked. Push eggs to the side of the griddle.
05 - Add minced garlic, peas, and carrots to the griddle. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until vegetables are heated through and fragrant.
06 - Add chilled rice to the griddle. Break up any clumps with a spatula and stir-fry with vegetables and eggs for 3-4 minutes until rice is hot and slightly crispy.
07 - Drizzle soy sauce over the rice and add butter. Mix thoroughly until everything is evenly coated and heated through.
08 - Return seared steak to the rice mixture. Add sliced green onions and toss gently to combine. Serve hot, garnished with sesame seeds and extra green onions.
