Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 pound beef sirloin thinly sliced
- 2 cups white rice
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons sesame seeds toasted
- 4 stalks green onions sliced
Marinade
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon gochujang
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger grated
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
Instructions
- 1 In a medium bowl, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, gochujang, minced garlic, grated ginger, sesame oil, and black pepper to create the marinade.
- 2 Place the thinly sliced beef in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the beef, ensuring all pieces are coated. Seal and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.
- 3 While the beef is marinating, cook the white rice according to package instructions.
- 4 Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated beef slices in batches, cooking for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned and cooked through.
- 5 Once all beef is cooked, reduce heat to low and return all beef to the skillet. Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and sliced green onions. Toss to combine and heat through.
- 6 Serve the sweet and spicy bulgogi beef over a bed of white rice, garnished with additional green onions and sesame seeds if desired.
