Tender sliced steak over buttery garlic fried rice, finished with golden garlic chips and fresh scallions — bold, savory, and utterly satisfying.

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 cup cooked Japanese rice (day-old)
  • 200g ribeye or sirloin steak
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 4 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • Salt & pepper to taste
  • 2 tbsp chopped scallions
  • 1 tsp vegetable oil

Instructions

  1. Season the steak with salt and pepper. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the steak to desired doneness, about 2–3 minutes per side for medium-rare. Remove from heat, rest for a few minutes, then slice thinly.
  2. In the same pan, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Add sliced garlic and fry until golden and crisp. Remove and set aside on paper towels.
  3. Lower heat, add butter to the same pan and sauté the minced garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  4. Add the day-old rice and soy sauce. Stir-fry for 2–3 minutes until evenly coated and heated through.
  5. Plate the garlic fried rice, top with sliced steak, and garnish with crispy garlic chips and chopped scallions.
  6. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use day-old rice for best texture and separation of grains.
  • Let steak rest before slicing to retain juices.
  • Adjust soy sauce to taste or add a splash of mirin for a hint of sweetness.
