# How to Make:

01 - In a bowl, combine steak cubes with soy sauce, mirin, sesame oil, minced garlic, and black pepper. Marinate for at least 10 minutes while preparing other ingredients.
02 - Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add marinated steak and cook for 2–3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned but still tender. Remove steak from pan and set aside.
03 - In the same pan, add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Sauté onion, carrots, zucchini, and mushrooms for 4–5 minutes, until just tender.
04 - Push vegetables to the side of the pan. Pour beaten eggs into the cleared space and scramble until just cooked.
05 - Add rice, peas, and cooked steak to the pan. Drizzle with soy sauce and toss everything together, breaking up any clumps of rice.
06 - Stir in butter and half the green onions. Cook for another 2–3 minutes, stirring frequently, until heated through and slightly crispy.
07 - Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. Serve immediately, garnished with sesame seeds and extra green onions if desired.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • Everything happens in one pan, which means less cleanup and more time actually enjoying your food.
  • The steak stays tender and juicy while the rice gets those crispy, caramelized edges that make you reach for seconds.
  • It tastes like you spent way more effort than you actually did.
02 -
  • Cold, day-old rice is absolutely essential because warm fresh rice releases moisture and turns into mush no matter how carefully you stir.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan or add everything at once, because you need high heat to get that crispy rice texture, and too much food drops the temperature too quickly.
03 -
  • If your rice is sticking together in clumps even after being refrigerated, break it apart with your hands before adding it to the pan so it frys instead of steamming.
  • Keep your ingredients prepped and within reach before you start cooking, because the whole process happens fast and you won't have time to chop things mid-way.
