Skip the restaurant and make Hibachi Shrimp and Vegetables at home. In about 30 minutes you'll have a delicious dish with tender shrimp, mushrooms, carrots, bell peppers, and broccoli in savory, salty and sweet Asian inspired sauce. It'll be better than at any restaurant and at a fraction of the price.
Broccoli sails across the room.
A stream of sake shoots through the air.
The last time I dined at a hibachi restaurant, I missed the broccoli flung at me by the chef. But I caught the sake shot into my mouth.
Eating at a hibachi restaurant is always a delicious adventure. I can't promise the hibachi theatrics at home. You can add them at your own risk.
why I love this hibachi shrimp recipe
My hibachi shrimp recipe includes all the fabulous flavors of the dish served at the restaurant. And you can make it right in your kitchen.
A smoky, sweet and salty sauce blankets the sesame, garlic, and ginger seared shrimp. The carrots, red bell pepper, mushrooms and broccoli are cooked until just tender crisp. They still have a slight crunch and are the perfect side for the flavor packed shrimp.

recipe details
I always prep the ingredients before I start to cook. It's the key to this easy to make and delicious hibachi shrimp recipe.
Start by combining the sauce ingredients. The salty soy sauce, smoky sweet hoisin sauce, toasted sesame oil, oyster sauce and a little cornstarch make up the intensely flavored sauce.
The oyster sauce is the key to getting that real hibachi flavor. Its got a rich umami savoriness. It's my secret weapon in all my Asian inspired dishes like this beef stir fry and this spicy jalapeno and chicken one. It's delish in my fried rice recipe too.
Next quickly sauté the mushrooms, carrots, and bell peppers to keep them tender crisp. While they sauté, I boil some water to quickly cook the broccoli.
Place the vegetables on a platter and cover with foil while the shrimp cook.
Briefly sauté garlic and ginger in sesame oil. Toss in peeled and deveined shrimp. They take only a few minutes to cook. Add the sauce and toss to coat the shrimp.
After a couple minutes, Add the hibachi shrimp to the platter with the vegetables. Sprinkle with sliced scallions and sesame seeds, grab some chopsticks and serve.

- Create some hibachi restaurant fun at home with this squirting boy. It's just like the one the chef uses for the oil.

This hibachi shrimp turned out perfect. The flavors were delicious and it came together easy.
Amy Casey says
Awesome Katie! Thanks for sharing.
Bonnie says
So good! The sauce is delicious. I was kind of confused about how to divide the 3T of sesame oil? I think I ended up using 1T in the sauce and the other 2T in the frying pan ( 1T at a time). Maybe you could clarify.
Thanks!
Amy Casey says
Thanks Bonnie. I made the correction to the recipe 🙂
