Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 pounds boneless rib eye steak
1/2 small pear, peeled and coarsely grated
1/4 cup reduced sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
3 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon gochujang (Korean red pepper paste)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided

1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds

Steps:

  • Wrap steak in plastic wrap, and place in the freezer for 30 minutes. Unwrap and slice across the grain into 1/4-inch thick slices. In a medium bowl, combine pear, soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, garlic, ginger and gochujang. In a gallon size Ziploc bag, combine soy sauce mixture and steak; marinate for at least 2 hours to overnight, turning the bag occasionally. Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a cast iron grill pan over medium-high heat.* Working in batches, add steak to the grill pan in a single layer and cook, flipping once, until charred and cooked through, about 2-3 minutes per side.

Categories     Entree

Time 2h40m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
1/2 cup rice vinegar
1 tablespoon finely chopped gingerroot
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
6 medium green onions, sliced (6 tablespoons)
4 cloves garlic, crushed
1 boneless beef sirloin steak, 1 1/2 inches thick (2 1/4 lb)

Steps:

  • In large resealable food-storage plastic bag, mix all ingredients except beef.
  • Score beef crosswise by making cuts 1/2 inch apart and 1/4 inch deep (beef will absorb more of the marinade and cook more evenly). Place beef in bag; seal bag and turn to coat. Refrigerate 2 hours to marinate, turning bag once after 1 hour.
  • Heat gas or charcoal grill. Remove beef from marinade; reserve marinade in 1-quart saucepan. Pat beef dry with paper towel. Place beef on grill over medium heat. Cover grill; cook 10 minutes. Turn beef; cover grill and cook 10 to 15 minutes longer for medium-rare (145°F). Cook 2 minutes longer for medium (160°F).
  • Meanwhile, heat reserved marinade to boiling over medium-high heat; boil 3 minutes, stirring frequently. Remove and discard garlic.
  • To serve, cut beef into slices; spoon sauce over beef.

KOREAN STEAK

This is a very good recipe, served with kim chee and rice! Times do not include marinating time. I mix it together before work, it seems to be plenty of time. I usually serve it with rice or use it to make an 'Oriental' salad.

KOREAN-STYLE GRILLED FLANK STEAK



Korean-Style Grilled Flank Steak image

Categories     Onion     Soy     Quick & Easy     Backyard BBQ     Steak     Grill/Barbecue     Gourmet

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons rice vinegar (not seasoned)
1 tablespoon grated peeled ginger
1 garlic clove, minced
2 teaspoons Sriracha (Southeast Asian chile sauce)
2 teaspoons sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons Asian sesame oil
1 to 1 1/4 pound flank steak
2 scallions, finely chopped
2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds
Accompaniments: white rice; soft leaf lettuce

Steps:

  • Stir together soy sauce, vinegar, ginger, garlic, Sriracha, sugar, and sesame oil.
  • Prepare a gas grill for direct-heat cooking over medium-high heat.
  • Oil grill rack, then grill steak, covered, turning over once, 6 to 8 minutes for medium-rare.
  • Transfer steak to a cutting board and drizzle with 2 tablespoons sauce, then let stand, uncovered, 5 minutes. Thinly slice steak across the grain. Serve with remaining sauce, scallions, and sesame seeds.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of steak: Look for a tender and flavorful cut, such as ribeye, strip loin, or tenderloin.
  • Marinate the steak: Marinating the steak in a mixture of soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, and ginger will help to tenderize it and infuse it with flavor.
  • Cook the steak over high heat: This will create a nice crust on the outside while keeping the inside juicy and tender.
  • Let the steak rest before slicing: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the steak, making it more tender and flavorful.
  • Serve the steak with your favorite sides: Some popular options include rice, noodles, vegetables, and kimchi.

Conclusion:

Korean steak is a delicious and flavorful dish that is easy to make at home. By following these tips, you can create a restaurant-quality steak that will impress your friends and family. So next time you're looking for a delicious and easy meal, give Korean steak a try.
