Ingredients:
For the Bulgogi Beef:
- 1 pound beef sirloin or ribeye, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon grated ginger
- 2 green onions, thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 8 small flour or corn tortillas, warmed
- Shredded lettuce
- Sliced cucumber
- Sliced carrots
- Kimchi
- Pickled vegetables (such as radishes or daikon)
- Sriracha or gochujang (Korean chili paste), for drizzling
- Additional sliced green onions, for garnish
- In a bowl, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, sliced green onions, and sesame seeds to make the marinade.
- Add the thinly sliced beef to the marinade, making sure to coat each slice evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.
- Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Add the marinated beef to the skillet in a single layer, working in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan.
- Cook the beef for 2-3 minutes per side, or until browned and caramelized, and cooked to your desired level of doneness. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
- To assemble the tacos, place a few slices of cooked bulgogi beef in the center of each warmed tortilla.
- Top with shredded lettuce, sliced cucumber, sliced carrots, kimchi, and pickled vegetables.
- Drizzle with sriracha or gochujang for a spicy kick, if desired.
- Garnish with additional sliced green onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds.
- Serve the Korean-Inspired Bulgogi Beef Tacos immediately, and enjoy the explosion of flavors with each bite!
