Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Beef ribeye or sirloin, thinly sliced
- 0.25 cup Soy sauce
- 2 tbsp Brown sugar
- 1 tbsp Sesame oil
- 4 cloves Garlic, minced
- 0.5 Asian pear, grated
- 2 Green onions, finely chopped
- 0.25 tsp Ground black pepper
- 1 tbsp Sesame seeds (optional)
- 1 tbsp Vegetable oil (for grilling)
Instructions
Place the thinly sliced beef in a large mixing bowl.
In a separate bowl, combine the soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated Asian pear, chopped green onions, and ground black pepper. Mix well to form the marinade.
Pour the marinade over the beef, ensuring all the slices are well coated. Cover the bowl and let the beef marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or for up to 24 hours for deeper flavor.
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates or pan with vegetable oil to prevent sticking.
Remove the beef from the marinade, allowing excess marinade to drip off (do not discard the marinade). Grill the beef slices in a single layer, cooking for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until caramelized and cooked through.
If desired, sprinkle the grilled beef with sesame seeds before serving.
Serve the bulgogi hot with steamed rice, lettuce wraps, or a side of kimchi for a complete Korean meal.
