Description
Korean Beef Bulgogi is a delicious and savory dish made with tender marinated rib eye steak, grilled to perfection and bursting with flavor.
Ingredients
Scale
1 ½ pounds boneless rib eye steak
½ small pear
peeled and coarsely grated
¼ cup reduced sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
3 cloves garlic
minced
1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger
1 tablespoon gochujang
Korean red pepper paste
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
divided
2 green onions
thinly sliced
1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds
Instructions
- Thinly slice the rib eye steak against the grain and place it in a large bowl.
- In a separate bowl, combine the grated pear, soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, and gochujang to create the marinade.
- Pour the marinade over the sliced beef, tossing to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated beef in batches, cooking until browned, about 3-4 minutes per batch.
- Remove the cooked beef from the skillet and set aside. Add the remaining oil if needed, and toss in the green onions, cooking for an additional 1-2 minutes.
- Return the beef to the skillet, and toss everything together. Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds before serving.
Notes
For best results, marinate the beef for a couple of hours. Serve with rice or lettuce wraps for a complete meal.
