Ingredients

Bulgogi
  • 1 pounds to 1-½ boneless sirloin steak cut into thin strips
  • 1/3 cup liquid aminos*
  • 1 Tbsp avocado oil
  • 1 Tbsp sesame oil
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger peeled and grated
  • 2 tablespoons honey*
  • ½ teaspoon Gochugaru or red pepper flakes
For the Bowls
  • 1 Batch Kimchi Fried Rice
  • 2 medium crowns broccoli steamed
  • Kimchi for serving

Instructions

Advance Prep:
    Cup of Yum
  1. If you're making the kimchi fried rice, do so in advance. Or, if you're making steamed white or brown rice, you can cook the rice while you're preparing the beef.
Prepare the Bulgogi:
  1. Combine the liquid aminos, avocado oil, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, honey, and gochugaru in a small blender and blend until completely combined. Place the thinly sliced steak in a sealable bag or container and pour in the marinade. Marinate for at least 15 minutes (overnight is better). While beef is marinating, prepare the rice according to package instructions and steam the broccoli.
  2. Heat a cast iron skillet to medium-high and add juste enough oil to lightly coat the surface, about 2 to 3 tablespoons. Carefully place several strips of beef on the hot skillet in a single layer, leaving room between strips. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until beef is browned. Flip using tongs and cook on the other side 1 to 2 minutes, or until beef is cooked to desired doneness. Transfer meat to a plate and repeat for the remaining strips of meat (It took me 3 rounds to finish cooking all the beef).
Prepare the Bowls:
  1. Divide the rice, broccoli, and bulgogi between 3 bowls. Serve with kimchi, and enjoy!

Notes
