Ingredients
- 1 lb flank steak or sirloin, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon gochujang (Korean chili paste)
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
- ½ teaspoon rice vinegar
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon honey (optional)
- 2 cups jasmine rice
- 4 cups water
- Pinch of salt
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Sriracha (adjust to taste)
- 1 teaspoon lime juice
- ½ teaspoon honey
- Pinch of salt
- 2 green onions, sliced
- Sesame seeds
- Kimchi (optional)
- Pickled radishes or cucumbers
Instructions
- In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, brown sugar, gochujang, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, rice vinegar, black pepper, and honey. Add the sliced steak to the marinade and let it sit for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator.
- Rinse the jasmine rice until water runs clear. Combine rice, water, and salt in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until tender and water is absorbed.
- Mix mayonnaise, Sriracha, lime juice, honey, and salt in a small bowl until smooth. Adjust spice level as desired.
- Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the marinated steak for 3–4 minutes on each side or until desired doneness. Let rest before slicing thinly against the grain.
- Assemble bowls with rice, sliced steak, spicy cream sauce, green onions, sesame seeds, kimchi, and pickled vegetables as desired.
Notes
- Adjust Sriracha and gochujang for more or less heat.
- Marinate steak ahead for deeper flavor.
- Store components separately for optimal freshness when prepping ahead.
