Expert Tips

  • This hibachi recipe is gluten-free, dairy-free, whole30, and paleo. For Whole30, make sure to use coconut aminos and compliant sriracha sauce. 
  • Feel free to use a grill or griddle instead of a skillet over the stovetop. 
  • If you are not gluten free, feel free to sub soy sauce

Serving Tips

  • Build your bowl by first adding the cooked rice or cauliflower rice to a bowl, top with the hibachi chicken and hibachi vegetables of choice, drizzle with the yum yum sauce and garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions if preferred.

Storage Tips
