When we went on vacation to South Dakota this summer to celebrate the boys’ birthdays, we went to a Hibachi restaurant. Levi and Elliana experienced the joys of Hibachi, with all of the thrills and pomp for the first time, whereas the rest of us have had it and absolutely LOVE to eat it. As it is, making Shrimp Chicken Hibachi at home is not that difficult if you have the tools. In this blog, I am going to share how to make it at home with Shrimp and Chicken.
What tools you may need
When making Hibachi at home, there are a few tools and items you need to have to make this recipe. The main tool is to have a large skillet. We have two skillets and set them next to each other to cook dinner. A new “fad” tool right now is having a Blackstone grill. We have friends that have one and let me tell you they are legit awesome! However, without one, you can still make a delicious dinner using a basic skillet.
One mistake that did happen while cooking, was the two skillets plugged in together did trip the braker in the basement. Twice. To be honest, it was annoying the first time, and really inconvenient the second time as the chicken was on at the time. I highly recommend placing them on two separate areas to avoid this inconvenience.
Cost to make this recipe
The cost for chicken right now is insanely high. I cannot believe that a whole chicken at my favorite ALDI is over $10! I understand that there is a shortage, but two years ago a whole chicken cost under $5.
Shrimp $12.98 ($6.49 each)
Chicken $10.87
Onion $0.20
Zucchini $2.18
Mushrooms $3.58 ($1.79 each)
Soy $0.25
Butter $0.48
The total cost for this meal was $30.54. To be honest, this is higher than the average meal we like to have on a weekly basis. Typically, a dinner for our family of six under $20 is my goal. However, the idea of making Shrimp and Chicken Hibachi at home was a great way to reminisce about our family vacation.
If you break down the total cost to make this recipe, all bought from ALDI, into individual servings, it only cost $5.09 each person to eat. Compared with going out to eat, a typical Hibachi meal with chicken and shrimp will cost $26-$30 at two local Sushi & Hibachi restaurants (click for their entire menu), with a kid’s meal costing $15.
If we were to go out and have four adult Shrimp and Chicken Hibachi, the cost would be $120 and add to that two kids Hibachi for $30. The total for us to go out, without tip, is $150. I saved our family $120 by making Shrimp and Chicken Hibachi at home.
