5 tablespoon(s) soy sauce (can use reduced sodium, if desired) |
1/4 cup(s) chopped green onion (plus more for garnish) |
2 1/2 tablespoon(s) sugar |
2 tablespoon(s) minced garlic |
2 tablespoon(s) sesame seeds |
2 tablespoon(s) sesame oil |
1/2 teaspoon(s) black pepper |
8 Butterhead Lettuce leaves (can use Romaine or your choice of lettuce) |
1 Recipe Kongnamul (bean sprouts with spices) recipe included in instructions |
Instructions
1. Put beef in a zip top plastic bat set in a shallow dish. Stir together soy sauce, green onion, sugar, garlic, sesame seeds, sesame oil and pepper in a small bowl. Whisk to blend, pour over beef. Seal bag and turn to coat. Chill at least 1 hour or up to overnight. 2. Preheat a grill pan (or any large pan for stir frying) over medium high heat, lightly oil pan. 3. Remove beef from bag, discarding marinade. Grill until slightly charred and cooked through, 1-2 minutes per side. Serve beef mixture in lettuce leaves with Kongamul. Garnish with additional green onions. Kongamul: Bring a pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add 8 oz soybean or mung bean sprouts: cook, uncovered, until tender, yet crisp, about 15 seconds. Drain and immediately immerse in ice water several minutes, then drain again. Whisk together 2 T. sesame oil, 1 T. each soy sauce and gochugaru (Korean red chili pepper flakes), 1 t. each sesame seeds and rice wine vinegar and 1/4 tsp minced garlic in a bowl. Stir in sprouts, toss to coat. Top with 2 T. sliced green onion. Chill at least 1 hour or up to 3 days before serving. |
Notes:I purchased the gochugaru from Amazon, but I believe you could use whatever red chili flakes you have on hand
I served it over brown rice, which I boil (like pasta but for 50 minutes), drain and flake with a fork . |
