Make these flavorful Korean BBQ steak rice bowls for a simple weeknight dinner. Tender marinated steak sits over fluffy rice, topped with a creamy gochujang mayo sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs flank steak or sirloin, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 cups cooked white rice
  • 1 cup shredded cabbage or kimchi
  • 2 green onions, sliced for garnish
  • For the Spicy Cream Sauce:
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons gochujang (Korean chili paste)
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon honey

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, combine the soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, minced garlic, ginger, and black pepper. Add the sliced steak and toss to coat. Marinate for at least 20 minutes, or up to 4 hours in the refrigerator.
  2. Prepare the spicy cream sauce by whisking together the mayonnaise, gochujang, rice vinegar, and honey in a small bowl until smooth. Set aside.
  3. Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the marinated steak in a single layer (work in batches if necessary to avoid crowding the pan). Cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side until nicely browned and cooked through.
  4. Assemble your bowls: Place one serving of cooked rice in the bottom of each bowl.
  5. Top the rice with the cooked Korean BBQ steak and shredded cabbage or kimchi.
  6. Drizzle generously with the prepared spicy cream sauce.
  7. Garnish with sliced green onions before serving.

Notes

  • For meal prep bowls, store the cooked steak, rice, and sauce separately. Assemble just before eating to keep the rice fluffy.
  • If you want a deeper flavor, substitute 1 tablespoon of the soy sauce with oyster sauce in the marinade.
  • You can substitute flank steak with thinly sliced ribeye for a richer result.
