Why You’ll Love Air Fryer Hibachi Chicken & Vegetables
This dish shines thanks to the juicy, tender chicken and crisp-tender vegetables infused with classic hibachi-style seasoning. The air fryer works its magic for caramelization and slight char, all while staying light and quick—no need to stand over a blazing hot grill. Plus, you can mix and match veggies to suit your preferences.
Prepping Chicken and Veggies Like a Pro
Even cutting ensures everything cooks evenly. Dice your chicken breast and chunk your veggies in uniform sizes. Streamline prep using the Mueller Pro-Series 10-in-1, 8 Blade Vegetable Chopper—it makes perfect cubes of onion, zucchini, and bell pepper in a fraction of the time.
Slice mushrooms and carrots to about 1/2-inch thickness, so they turn out beautifully tender and not mushy. Use a sturdy Bamboo Cutting Boards for Kitchen, Set of 3 for safe, mess-free preparation.
Making Hibachi Chicken & Vegetables in the Air Fryer
Toss chicken and veggies with your homemade hibachi sauce—soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and a touch of sesame oil. For crisp, nonstick success, line your air fryer basket with Air Fryer Paper Liners, 8” Square. Preheat your COSORI Air Fryer 9-in-1, Compact & Large 6-Qt for optimal caramelization and a savory exterior.
Cook in batches if necessary—crowding the basket can cause steaming instead of browning.
Serving and Storing for Maximum Freshness
Spoon your sizzling hibachi chicken & vegetables over cooked rice or noodles. For takeaway-style meal prep, divide portions into Rubbermaid Brilliance Food Storage Containers. Enjoy leftovers cold atop a salad, or gently reheat for a quick lunch.
Top with extra scallions, a drizzle of yum-yum sauce, or toasted sesame seeds for added flair.
