As someone who cooks on a Blackstone griddle several times a week (and has tested dozens of hibachi-style dinners over the years!), I can confidently say: this is the easiest and most flavorful way to enjoy hibachi chicken and veggies at home.
This isn’t just another stir-fry—it’s a sizzling, restaurant-style meal with juicy chicken, crisp-tender vegetables, and that classic hibachi sear. And the best part? It’s healthier, WW-friendly, and comes together in under 30 minutes. As a food blogger who focuses on high-protein, lower-point meals, this recipe is one I make again and again.

Meat and Vegetables
When preparing a hibachi meal, selecting the right combination of meats and vegetables is key to creating a delicious and balanced dish. For protein it is recommended to make sure everything is cut into bite-sized pieces.
Chicken is versatile and absorbs flavors well. Opt for boneless, skinless chicken breast or thighs for quick and even cooking.
Beef, particularly sirloin or ribeye, is a popular choice for hibachi. The marbling in these cuts ensures they stay juicy and flavorful when cooked quickly at high temperatures.
Shrimp: This seafood option cooks quickly and pairs well with a variety of sauces, adding a sweet and savory element to your meal.
Scallops: For a more luxurious touch, scallops bring a delicate, sweet flavor that complements the smoky taste from the grill.
Mushrooms: These add an earthy flavor and are excellent at soaking up the savory sauces typical of hibachi cooking.
Onion: Essential for its sweet and slightly pungent flavor when caramelized, onions are a must-have in hibachi dishes. Try out this other dish for Blackstone Lo Mein or Blackstone Beef and Broccoli Stir Fry
Hibachi Sauce

Flavorful condiments are often associated with Japanese-style grilling, known as hibachi. This sauce is a versatile accompaniment used to enhance the taste of grilled meats, seafood, and vegetables. Here are a few popular types of hibachi sauces:
- Yum Yum Sauce: Also known as white sauce or pink sauce, this creamy condiment is a favorite at hibachi grills. It's usually made with mayonnaise, ketchup, rice vinegar, garlic powder, and a hint of sugar for sweetness.
- Blackstone Fried Rice: I've got a separate recipe for that.
- Ginger Sauce: This zesty sauce is made from a blend of soy sauce, fresh ginger, garlic, vinegar, and sometimes a splash of lemon juice. It's a light, tangy dipping sauce that pairs well with grilled meats and vegetables.
- Teriyaki Sauce: A well-known sauce that combines soy sauce, sake, mirin, and sugar, teriyaki sauce is often used as both a marinade and a glaze for meats and vegetables. Its sweet and savory profile adds depth to hibachi dishes
