Instructions

  1. Whisk all of the bulgogi sauce ingredients together in a large bowl. (If using Asian pear, use a blender to process all of the ingredients for a smoother marinade.)
  2. Add the sliced ribeye steak and marinate the beef for at least 30 minutes, or overnight for more flavor development.
  3. Heat your grill, cast iron grill pan or wok to medium high heat with a lightly oiled surface. Grill or stir fry the beef for 5-6 minutes for medium-rare, stirring or flipping often, or longer until done to your liking.
  4. Garnish with green onions, sliced peppers, red chili flake and toasted sesame seeds. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • Serve your bulgogi on lettuce leaves or over rice. Works well with noodles, also.
