How to Make Hibachi Zucchini {Japanese Steakhouse Style Zucchini & Onions} Prepare your vegetables by washing and trimming the zucchini. Cut each zucchini into 2 inch long chunks, then cut each of those 2-inch pieces into 6 wedges. Trim the ends from a medium sweet onion and cut into roughly 1 - 1 ½ inch sized chunks.
Heat your wok ( large skillet or frying pan, Blackstone grill ) with the cooking oil over medium high heat. Add the prepared cut zucchini and onions, and cook for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the teriyaki and soy sauce, along with the crushed red pepper flakes and pepper for seasoning. Continue to cook the Japanese steakhouse style zucchini and onions for an additional three to four minutes, or until they have reached your desired level of tenderness. *You can cut larger pieces of zucchini or cook for a shorter time if you like some firmness in your cooked zucchini.
Once cooked, remove from heat and serve immediately. Garnish with sesame seeds ( toasted or raw ) and/or cut green onions. Fantastic stir-ins include: mushrooms, broccoli, yellow squash, a drizzle of sesame seed oil, or chili paste.
Serve over Jasmine rice, with easy fried rice or hibachi noodles. Enjoy!
