Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 g Beef ribeye, thinly sliced
- 60 ml Soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
- 2 tbsp Granulated erythritol or keto sweetener
- 1 tbsp Sesame oil
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 tsp Grated fresh ginger
- 2 Green onions, sliced
- 0.5 tsp Crushed red pepper flakes
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper
- 1 tbsp Sesame seeds, for garnish
- Lettuce leaves or cauliflower rice, for serving
Instructions
Slice the beef ribeye into very thin pieces. To make it easier, place the beef in the freezer for about 20 minutes to firm up slightly before slicing.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the soy sauce, granulated erythritol, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, sliced green onions, crushed red pepper flakes, and black pepper. Mix well to create the marinade.
Add the sliced beef to the marinade, ensuring each piece is well coated. Cover and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or ideally overnight for maximum flavor.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated beef to the skillet in a single layer (cook in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding).
Cook the beef for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the beef is browned and cooked through.
Remove the cooked beef from the skillet and transfer it to a serving plate.
Garnish the beef bulgogi with sesame seeds and additional sliced green onions, if desired.
Serve immediately with lettuce leaves for wrapping or over cauliflower rice for a complete keto-friendly meal.
