"This version of bulgogi that adapted from Epicurious uses thinly sliced rib-eye or sirloin. These get a quick, 30-minute dip in a flavorful marinade—and then it's on the grill and off in a matter of minutes. It doesn't get much simpler. Adapted from Nick Kindlesperger's recipe at Serious Eats. Serve with kimchi."

ingredients

Bulgogi
1 lb rib eye
¹⁄₄ cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon mirin
¹⁄₂ medium onion, grated
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon grated fresh gingerroot
1 teaspoon sesame seeds, toasted
¹⁄₄ teaspoon black pepper
To serve
romaine lettuce or bibb lettuce
1 cup cooked white rice
4 teaspoons hot bean paste

directions

Freeze rib eye for 15-20 minutes before slicing very thin, against the grain.
In a large zip top bag, combine marinade ingredients with sliced beef. Press out as much air as possible and seal bag. Refrigerate 30 minutes, turning over once after 15 minutes.
Preheat grill pan or large skillet over high heat. Remove meat from marinade, draining well. Add to pan. Cook a few minutes on each side until nicely browned.
Serve beef with lettuce, rice, kimchi and bean paste. To eat, spread a small smear of bean paste on a lettuce leaf. Add a bit of kimchi, a couple of pieces of beef and a spoonful or rice. Roll up and devour.

I'm a 48 y/o gay Jewish man in the suburbs immediately north of New York City. I'm a general internist, practicing and teaching at a medical college north of NYC. I also earned a Masters in Public Health degree in 2013. After a Walt Disney World trip in Dec 2006 where I had to rent an electric scooter because I couldn't manage the walking, I decided to have gastric bypass surgery, which was done Feb 28, 2007. I lost 160 lbs (though I've gained back about 60 of that since). I can't eat as much as I used to, so I want every bite to be extra good!
