Beef Bulgogi

Korean beef bulgogi is a must-try dish for any meat lover! Thinly sliced beef is marinated in a sweet and savory sauce, then grilled or stir-fried until tender and juicy. This quick and easy recipe is great for busy weeknight dinners!

Ingreadient

• 1 pound ribeye or sirloin (thinly sliced)
• ½ medium onion (thinly sliced)
• 2 green onions (chopped)
• 2 cloves garlic (minced)
• 1 small carrot (julienned)
• chopped green onions
• sesame seeds (optional garnish)
• ¼ cup coconut aminos
• 2 tbsp honey (or maple syrup)
• 1 tsp grated fresh ginger
• 1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
• ¼ tsp black pepper

Step by step

1. First, in a bowl, whisk together all the marinade ingredients. Set aside.
2. If the beef is not already thinly sliced, place it in the freezer for about 20 to 30 minutes to make slicing easier. Then, thinly slice the beef against the grain into bite-sized pieces.
3. Place the sliced beef in a bowl and pour the marinade over it. Toss to ensure all the beef is well-coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to marinate. For the best flavor, marinate for 2 to 3 hours or overnight in the refrigerator.
4. Heat a large skillet or a grill pan over medium-high heat. If needed, add a touch of oil to prevent sticking.
5. Add the marinated beef and sliced onions to the hot skillet. Cook for about 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the beef is cooked through and caramelized. Add in the julienned carrots.
6. Add the minced garlic and chopped green onions to the skillet. Cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes, or until fragrant.
7. Finally, transfer the Beef Bulgogi to a serving plate. Garnish with sesame seeds and additional chopped green onions if desired.
