Description
Delicious Korean BBQ steak served with a spicy cream sauce over rice and vegetables.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb flank steak or sirloin, thinly sliced
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh grated ginger
- 1 teaspoon gochujang (Korean chili paste)
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil (for cooking)
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon sriracha
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon lime juice
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 2 cups cooked white rice (or brown rice)
- 1 cup shredded carrots
- 1 cup sliced cucumber
- 1 cup kimchi
- 2 green onions, sliced
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, mix soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, rice vinegar, garlic, ginger, and gochujang until well combined. Add the thinly sliced steak and toss to coat. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes (up to 2 hours in the fridge for deeper flavor).
- In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sriracha, sesame oil, lime juice, and sugar. Adjust heat to taste—add more sriracha if you like it hotter. Chill in the fridge until ready to use.
- Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated steak in a single layer (you may need to do this in batches) and sear for 1-2 minutes per side until browned and caramelized. Don’t overcrowd the pan—let the beef get those crispy edges.
- Start with a warm base of cooked rice. Top with a generous portion of the seared Korean BBQ steak. Arrange carrots, cucumbers, kimchi, and green onions around the bowl. Drizzle with the spicy cream sauce and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
- Serve immediately while the steak is hot and juicy. Mix it all up in the bowl before your first bite—you won’t regret it.
Notes
- For a spicier sauce, add more sriracha based on your preference.
- Letting the steak marinate longer enhances the flavor.
