- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon grated ginger
- 2 green onions, thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon mirin (Japanese rice wine)

- In a bowl, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, sliced green onions, rice vinegar, mirin, and black pepper to make the bulgogi marinade.
- Add thinly sliced beef to the marinade, making sure it is well coated. Cover the bowl and let the beef marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight for maximum flavor.
- Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add thinly sliced onion, bell pepper, and mushrooms to the skillet, and cook until they are softened and slightly caramelized, about 5-6 minutes.
- Add marinated beef to the skillet, along with any remaining marinade. Cook the beef and vegetables together, stirring frequently, until the beef is cooked through and caramelized, about 5-6 minutes.
- Add fresh spinach leaves to the skillet and cook for another 1-2 minutes, until the spinach is wilted.
- To assemble the rice bowls, divide cooked white rice among serving bowls. Top each bowl with a portion of the bulgogi beef and vegetable mixture.
- Garnish the rice bowls with sesame seeds and thinly sliced green onions.
- Serve the Korean-Inspired Bulgogi Beef Rice Bowls hot, with kimchi on the side if desired.
