Notes
Prep all the ingredients before starting to cook.
Don't overcook the shrimp or it will be rubbery.
Create some hibachi restaurant fun at home with this squirting boy dispenser. It's just like the one the chef uses for the oil.
I always make a pot of my fluffy rice to go along with the shrimp hibachi.
