Hibachi on a Blackstone Griddle: Easy Fried Rice Recipe + Pro Tips

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Hibachi on the griddle is one of those recipes that’s as fun to make as it is to eat. After creating over 300 griddle-focused YouTube videos and racking up more than 18 million views, I’ve learned that hibachi is one of the recipes people are most excited about—and the one I get the most questions about. That’s why I’ve simplified this recipe to make it approachable for beginners while still delivering that classic hibachi experience.

Here are three tips to set you up for success:

  1. Prep everything ahead of time. Double-check the recipe before heading out to the griddle to make sure you’ve got all your ingredients ready to go.
  2. Use garlic butter. Whether it’s a pre-made garlic butter spread or one you whip up yourself, this is a game-changer. It helps streamline the ingredient list.
  3. Start with pre-made rice. If it’s your first time making hibachi, using pre-cooked rice can make the process so much easier.

Instructions

Preheat the Griddle:

Prep the Rice:

  • Break apart the pre-cooked jasmine rice with your hands in the bag before you put it on the griddle.

Fry the Rice:

  • Spread the rice on the griddle.
  • Season with salt and pepper, then add 2 tablespoon garlic butter.
  • Drizzle 3–4 tablespoon soy sauce over the rice and toss until evenly coated.

Cook the Vegetables:

  • Lightly oil the griddle and add onions (center), zucchini, and mushrooms (edges).
  • Season with salt and pepper, then toss with about 1 tablespoon garlic butter per vegetable group.
  • Cook until tender, moving veggies around as needed.

Add the Eggs:

  • Make a well in the rice, add a bit of oil, and crack in the eggs.
  • Season with salt and pepper, scramble lightly, and let them cook for about 90 seconds.
  • Mix eggs into the rice, then drizzle with sesame oil (1–2 Tbsp) and mix again.
  • Push rice to an outside burner (left side) and turn it off to use as a warming zone.
  • Move veggies over with the rice.

Cook the Meat:

  • Turn up the two burners on the right side to medium-high.
  • Add the chicken first (season with salt and pepper), spread it out, and cook until internal temp reaches 160–165°F. Add 1 tablespoon garlic butter and a splash of soy sauce.

Hey, I'm Johnny!

My first job out of college was running a diner, where I learned the art of cooking on a griddle. When COVID hit, I bought a Blackstone griddle for myself and started sharing my passion on YouTube. Five years, 250 videos, and nearly 20 million views later, I now teach griddling full-time. My goal? To help everyday folks get the most out of their Blackstone by keeping it simple, beginner-friendly, and real. These aren’t viral recipes—just the kind of food you'd actually make for your family
