Directions:

1. Yum Yum Sauce: In a bowl add all yum yum sauce ingredients. Mix to combine and refrigerate until ready to use.
2. Garlic Butter: In a bowl add butter, garlic, and soy sauce and mix to combine. Set aside until ready to use.
3. Marinate Chicken/Steak: In a bowl combine meat through pepper and set aside until ready to cook.
4. Zucchini and Onions: In a skillet heat olive oil; then add the zucchini and onions and sauté until crisp tender. Then add a scoop of garlic butter and toss to combine. Remove zucchini and onions to a bowl and set aside.
5. Fried Rice: In the same skillet you cooked your veggies, add more olive oil; then add the onions and sauté for 1 minute. Add the garlic, ginger, and crushed red pepper and sauté for 30 seconds. Add the cold rice and toss to combine to coat the rice. Push rice to the side and add the eggs to scramble (alternatively cook the eggs in a separate skillet and then add to the rice mixture) and then toss to combine. Add the peas and carrots, soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil, and toss to combine. Add a scoop of garlic butter and toss to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Remove fried rice to a serving bowl and top with green onions.
6. Cook Hibachi Chicken/Steak: Heat the same skillet you cooked the fried rice, add your chicken/steak and sauté until cooked, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and add a scoop of garlic butter.
7. Plate: To each plate add fried rice, veggies, and meat and then top with yum yum sauce.
