Bulgogi 불고기 Recipe

Prepare the Marinade

In a medium bowl, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, minced garlic, sesame oil, and black pepper. Grate the Korean pear and add it to the mixture. Stir well until the sugar is dissolved.

Marinate the Beef

Thinly slice the top sirloin and ribeye beef against the grain. Place the sliced beef in a large bowl or zip-lock bag and pour the marinade over the beef. Ensure all pieces are well coated. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours for deeper flavor.

Cook the Beef

Heat a grill or pan over medium-high heat. Add the marinated beef in a single layer and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until caramelized and cooked to your desired doneness.

Garnish and Serve

Transfer the cooked beef to a serving plate. Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds. Serve hot with rice and your favorite side dishes.
