Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 1 pound beef sirloin thinly sliced
  • 4 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon grated ginger
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
  • 2 stalks scallions sliced
  • 2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds

Optional Garnishes

  • 1 cup cooked rice
  • 1/4 cup kimchi

Instructions

  1. 1 In a large bowl, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, and black pepper to create the marinade.
  2. 2 Add the thinly sliced beef to the marinade, ensuring each piece is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes or up to 2 hours.
  3. 3 Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated beef slices in a single layer.
  4. 4 Cook the beef for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned and cooked through. Work in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding.
  5. 5 Transfer the cooked beef to a serving platter. Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and sliced scallions.
  6. 6 Serve immediately over cooked rice and a side of kimchi if desired.
