Grilled Korean Steak Recipes

Steps:

• Stir together 3/4 cup soy sauce, Sherry, sugar, 1 1/2 tablespoons garlic, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, and red pepper flakes in a 13- by 9- by 2-inch baking dish until sugar is dissolved, then add steaks, turning to coat. Marinate steaks, turning once, 1 hour.
• Prepare grill for cooking.
• Stir together cilantro, vegetable oil, lime juice, remaining 3 tablespoons soy sauce, remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons garlic, remaining 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil, and chile if using.
• When fire is medium-hot (you can hold your hand 5 inches above rack 3 to 4 seconds), grill steaks on a lightly oiled rack 3 to 4 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Let steaks stand on a cutting board 5 minutes, then top with some sauce and cut crosswise into 3/4-inch-thick slices.
• Serve remaining sauce on the side.

Steps:

• Pierce the steak a few times with a fork. Toast the sesame seeds in a skillet over medium heat until golden, shaking the pan, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate to cool.
• Combine the sesame seeds, garlic, cola, soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Add the steak, onion wedges and bacon, turning to coat. Cover and refrigerate 4 hours or overnight.
• Remove the steak and onion wedges from the marinade with a slotted spoon and transfer to a baking sheet. Heat a grill pan over high heat. Grill the onion wedges and peppers, turning, until charred, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a platter. Grill the steak until charred, 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium rare. Add to the platter.

Steps:

• Stir together soy sauce, vinegar, ginger, garlic, Sriracha, sugar, and sesame oil.
• Prepare a gas grill for direct-heat cooking over medium-high heat.
• Oil grill rack, then grill steak, covered, turning over once, 6 to 8 minutes for medium-rare.
• Transfer steak to a cutting board and drizzle with 2 tablespoons sauce, then let stand, uncovered, 5 minutes. Thinly slice steak across the grain. Serve with remaining sauce, scallions, and sesame seeds.

Steps:

• In large resealable food-storage plastic bag, mix all ingredients except beef.
• Score beef crosswise by making cuts 1/2 inch apart and 1/4 inch deep (beef will absorb more of the marinade and cook more evenly). Place beef in bag; seal bag and turn to coat. Refrigerate 2 hours to marinate, turning bag once after 1 hour.
• Heat gas or charcoal grill. Remove beef from marinade; reserve marinade in 1-quart saucepan. Pat beef dry with paper towel. Place beef on grill over medium heat. Cover grill; cook 10 minutes. Turn beef; cover grill and cook 10 to 15 minutes longer for medium-rare (145°F). Cook 2 minutes longer for medium (160°F).
• Meanwhile, heat reserved marinade to boiling over medium-high heat; boil 3 minutes, stirring frequently. Remove and discard garlic.
• To serve, cut beef into slices; spoon sauce over beef.

Steps:

• Cut the steak into 3 to 5 pieces of the same thickness. Carefully slice any pieces thicker than 1/2 inch in half horizontally to create 2 thinner pieces. Put in a large nonreactive bowl or large resealable bag.
• Combine the soy sauce, sesame oil, vinegar, garlic, sugar, a pinch of salt and a generous grinding of pepper in a blender. Cut the pear in half; roughly chop 1 half and add it to the blender. (Refrigerate the other pear half for serving.) Puree the mixture in the blender until smooth, then pour over the steak; toss. Seal the bag and refrigerate 6 to 10 hours.
• Preheat a grill to high (make sure the grates are very clean). Meanwhile, cook the rice as the label directs.
• Remove the steak from the marinade, letting the excess drip off. Strain the marinade into a small pot and bring to a boil over medium heat. Simmer until slightly thickened, 2 to 3 minutes; set the sauce aside. Season the steak pieces with salt and pepper and place on the hot grill. Cook, flipping and moving the pieces occasionally to prevent flare-ups, until lightly charred, 5 to 8 minutes for medium doneness, depending on the thickness. Transfer the steak to a cutting board and let rest about 5 minutes.
• Cut the remaining pear half into matchsticks. Divide the lettuce among shallow bowls, piling it to one side; top with the kimchi and pear. Add the rice to the other half of the bowls. Slice the steak and add to the bowls; sprinkle with the scallions. Drizzle with the sauce.
