Description
A delicious and easy recipe for Korean BBQ Beef Bowl featuring tender beef, sweet corn, and a creamy sauce.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb flank steak or boneless short ribs, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar
- 2 cups corn kernels (fresh, frozen, or canned)
- 1 tbsp butter
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika or chili powder
- 1/3 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp gochujang or Sriracha (adjust to taste)
- 1 tbsp lime juice
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions
- 2 tbsp chopped cilantro
- 1 tsp black sesame seeds (optional)
- Cooked rice or noodles, for serving
Instructions
- In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, sesame oil, and rice vinegar.
- Add the sliced beef to the marinade and let it rest for at least 30 minutes (or overnight for deeper flavor).
- In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise, gochujang, and lime juice. Chill until ready to use.
- Heat butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add corn and paprika (or chili powder), and sauté until golden and slightly charred, about 5–7 minutes.
- Heat a grill pan or skillet over high heat. Sear the marinated beef in batches for 2–3 minutes per side until caramelized and cooked through.
- To assemble, layer rice or noodles in a bowl. Top with beef, corn, and a drizzle of the creamy sauce.
- Garnish with green onions, cilantro, and sesame seeds.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
- For a spicier version, increase the amount of gochujang or Sriracha.
- Can substitute beef with chicken or tofu for a different protein option.
- Using fresh corn will give the best flavor, but frozen or canned works well.
