Korean Steak Recipes

Steps:

• In a large bowl, stir together the soy sauce, sugar, sesame seeds, sesame oil, shallots, garlic, and mirin. Add the meat, and stir to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 12 to 24 hours.
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Fry the meat for 5 to 10 minutes, or until no longer pink. Serve with salad or fried rice.

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:

• Slice the beef as thinly as you can, then set aside in a large bowl. Using frozen or cold beef will make the slicing easier.
• In a blender or food processor, blend the onion chunks, garlic, pear, green onion pieces, brown sugar, pepper, soy sauce, and sesame oil until smooth.
• Pour the marinade over the beef, add the thinly sliced onion, then mix to coat evenly. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate in the fridge for at least 30 minutes, or overnight.
• Heat the canola oil in a large skillet over high heat. Pat the meat dry.
• Being careful not to crowd the pan, sear the marinated beef and onions until browned. Sprinkle with the sliced green onions and sesame seeds.
• Serve with rice and side dishes.
• Enjoy!

• UPDATE: this also worked well on a grill!

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.

Steps:

• For steaks:.
• Combine marinade ingredients in bowl. Add steaks. Cover; Let it sit overnight.
• For Kimchi rice:.
• Bring 2 cups water to boil in small saucepan. Add rice and 1 teaspoon salt. Return to boil; reduce heat to low, cover, and cook until water is absorbed, about 18-20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, prepare grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill steaks until slightly charred but still pink in center, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to plate. Let stand 5 minutes.
• Heat 2 tablespoons oil in large skillet over medium heat. Add kimchi, shallot, and vinegar. Stir until heated. Fold in rice. Season with salt and pepper. Keep warm.
• Cook the eggs, preferably in a non-stick skillet in the remaining oil (butter works great as well), just until whites are set. Season as desired.
• Divide kimchi rice among 4 plates. Slice steaks thinly across grain; arrange over rice. Top each with egg; sprinkle with green onions and serve.
• ***If you're just in it for the kimchi and don't want the hassle, I will admit that I've actually done this with Spam in place of the marinated steaks. It worked for me -- I can't believe I just fessed up to eating Spam -- .

Steps:

• Stir together soy sauce, vinegar, ginger, garlic, Sriracha, sugar, and sesame oil.
