Notes

Recipe Tips

Marinated Beef - Marinating the beef is what gives it its flavor so do not skip this time and allow it to marinate. We recommend marinating for at least 30 minutes.
Searing Steak - When cooking the steak, do not toss it regularly. You want each side to get seared. Spread the steak into a single layer and let it sit without touching it. Then flip and sear on the other side as well. This will give you the best flavor in this steak.
Cooking Steak - Watch the steak closely while it’s cooking, as it’ll cook fast since it’s sliced thinly.
Meal Prep - Make a double batch — it reheats beautifully for quick lunches!

Variations Ideas

Korean BBQ Chicken - Swap beef for boneless chicken thighs for a delicious variations.
Spicy Version: Add 1/2 tsp of chili paste or sriracha for an extra kick of flavor.
Vegetable Mix - Grill bell peppers, mushrooms, carrot or onions alongside the beef then mix everything together for an amazing meal idea.
Sweetness - For a hint of sweetness add in 1 tbsp of honey.
