Ingredients for Korean Beef Bulgogi:
1.5lbs Flank Steak
42g Reduced Sodium Soy Sauce
14g Brown Sugar
14g Honey
30g Rice Vinegar (Or Mirin if you have it on hand)
6 Cloves Minced Garlic
1 Green Onion
½ Kiwi (Mashed with a fork)
3g Black Pepper
5g Sesame Seeds
Rest of Toppings:
Red Onion
Cucumber
Cilantro
Sesame Seeds
Black Sesame Seeds
Directions:
1.) Take your 1.5lbs Certified Angus Beef Flank Steak Strip and cut against the grain and at an angle into thin strips. If this is difficult, I recommend putting the steak in the freezer for about 10-15 minutes to make it much easier to cut.
2.) Now make your marinade. Add your soy sauce, brown sugar, honey, rice vinegar, minced garlic, green onion, mashed kiwi, black pepper and sesame seeds to a bowla and mix.
3.) Now combine your strips of flank steak with the marinade. I added mine to a zip lock bag to help evenly disperse the marinade with the steak. Add to the fridge and let marinate for as long as you patience can handle! At least an hour but I did mine overnight.
4.) Then once ready to cook, preheat your stove top pan to a 7/10 heat. Add some strips to your pan but make sure they are not over crowded! Give them plenty of room to cook. They cook fast. About 2 minutes on each side and they are good to go!
5.) Once done, add to your steamed bao buns (you can find these at a local asian grocery store) along with some fresh sliced cucumber, red onion, cilantro. Finish with some regular and black sesame seeds and enjoy!
