Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Easy Korean BBQ Beef (Bulgogi).
Step 1
Start by gathering all your ingredients to make the cooking process smooth and enjoyable.
Step 2
In a spacious glass or ceramic bowl, combine the soy sauce with the white and light green parts of the chopped green onions, sliced yellow onion, sugar, minced garlic, toasted sesame seeds, sesame oil, Korean red pepper flakes, minced ginger, and a dash of black pepper.
Step 3
Whisk everything together until it’s well blended and fragrant.
Step 4
Next, add the thinly sliced beef to the marinade, tossing it gently to ensure every piece is coated in that delicious mixture.
Step 5
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least an hour, or if you have the time, let it sit for up to a day to really deepen those flavors.
Step 6
When you’re ready to cook, heat a wok or a large skillet over medium heat.
Step 7
Working in batches, add the marinated beef along with the marinade to the hot skillet.
Step 8
Cook and stir for about five minutes, or until the beef is perfectly cooked through.
Step 9
For a touch of sweetness and to help caramelize the meat, drizzle a little honey over the beef while it cooks.
Step 10
Once everything is beautifully cooked, finish off your bulgogi by garnishing it with the dark green parts of the chopped green onions.
Step 11
Serve it up and enjoy the delightful flavors of this classic dish!.
