# How To Make It:

01 - Combine steak cubes with soy sauce, mirin, sesame oil, minced garlic, and black pepper in a bowl. Let marinate for at least 10 minutes while preparing other ingredients.
02 - Heat 1 tbsp vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add marinated steak and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned but still tender. Remove steak from pan and set aside.
03 - Add the remaining 1 tbsp oil to the same pan. Sauté onion, carrots, zucchini, and mushrooms for 4-5 minutes until just tender.
04 - Push vegetables to the side of the pan. Pour beaten eggs into the cleared space and scramble until just cooked.
05 - Add rice, peas, and cooked steak to the pan. Drizzle with soy sauce and toss everything together, breaking up any clumps of rice.
06 - Stir in butter and half the green onions. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until heated through and slightly crispy. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
07 - Serve immediately, garnished with sesame seeds and extra green onions if desired.
