Beef Bulgogi is a Korean dish with thinly sliced steak marinated to perfection and grilled over high heat, producing delectable, crispy edges on tender slices of beef. This is one of our favorite dishes. It has incredible flavor with each little thin slice of beef steak marinated and cooked up crispy and tender with sweet, savory, and smoky hints.

How To Make beef bulgogi

  • Step 1
    Place the steak in a large Ziploc bag. Add soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, sesame oil, pepper, green onion, and pear. Marinate for at least one hour up to overnight.
  • Step 2
    Add 1 tablespoon of oil to a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Using tongs, remove the beef from the marinade, shaking it off. Place it in a skillet in a single layer.
  • Step 3
    Cook for 1-2 minutes per side or until browned and slightly crispy on the edges. Add more oil when necessary. Work in batches; plating the meat after it is done. Serve immediately over rice or with pickled vegetables.
