Beef Marinade

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a large bowl, combine the soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, chopped green onions, and black pepper. Mix well until the sugar is dissolved.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Beef

    Add the thinly sliced beef to the marinade, ensuring all pieces are well coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for deeper flavor.

  3. 3

    Cook the Beef

    Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove the beef from the marinade, shaking off excess. Cook the beef in batches for about 3-4 minutes until browned and cooked through.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Transfer the cooked beef to a serving platter. Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and additional chopped green onions if desired. Serve hot with rice or lettuce wraps.
