  • 3 cups broccoli florets cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger minced
Cooking and Seasoning
  • 6 tablespoons butter divided
  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 4 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons mirin or honey
  • 2 tablespoons white wine optional, for deglazing
Serving (Optional)

Equipment

  • Blackstone griddle or large flat-top cooking surface
  • Stainless steel spatula
  • Wooden spatula
  • Tongs
  • Sharp knife
  • Metal mixing bowl or small container for oil and seasonings
  • Butter knife or small scraper
  • Meat thermometer
  • Prep bowls

Method
 

  1. Cut all vegetables into uniform, bite-sized pieces and cube or slice the steak; pat the protein dry and season everything lightly with salt and pepper, then stage ingredients in prep bowls.
  2. Preheat the griddle over high heat (400-450°F) for at least 5 minutes until water droplets sizzle and evaporate instantly.
  3. Add 1 tablespoon oil to the center of the griddle and sear steak cubes undisturbed for 2-3 minutes per side until medium-rare (130-135°F), then move steak to a cooler zone and tent with foil.
  4. Add shrimp to the hot zone and cook 1-2 minutes per side until pink and opaque; remove and tent with the steak.
  5. Divide the griddle into a high-heat zone and a medium-heat zone; push cooked proteins to the medium zone for warming.
  6. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in the high-heat zone and cook broccoli and mushrooms, stirring occasionally for 4-5 minutes until golden-brown; move to the warm zone.
  7. Add 1 tablespoon butter to the high-heat zone and cook zucchini and onions, stirring every minute for 4-5 minutes until tender with charred edges; transfer to the warm zone.
  8. Create a small well, melt 1 tablespoon butter, sauté garlic and ginger for 30 seconds, then pour in soy sauce and mirin (and deglaze with wine if using), stirring to combine into a glaze.
  9. Return all proteins and vegetables to the hot zone, toss for 30 seconds to coat in the glaze, then serve immediately with rice and garnishes.

Notes

Serve immediately with steamed or fried rice and garnish with green onions and sesame seeds.
