Korean Beef Tacos Bulgogi Recipes

KOREAN-STYLE BULGOGI BEEF TACOS

Steps:

• Trim excess fat from beef and slice very thinly across the grain. Transfer beef to a container.
• Place onion, pear, garlic, ginger, and sake in a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth and creamy. Add soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, and black pepper. Pulse until marinade is well mixed.
• Pour marinade over beef. Gently massage beef for a minute or two. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight.
• Mix vinegar, sugar, garlic, gochugaru, sesame oil, and salt together in a large bowl. Add cucumbers and green onions and mix gently by hand. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
• Remove beef from refrigerator about 20 minutes before cooking.
• Heat canola oil in a cast iron pan over high heat. Cook beef in batches, one layer at a time, stirring until nicely browned, about 3 minutes. Avoid overcrowding beef, or it will end up steaming instead of browning. Transfer to a serving plate and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
• Heat tortillas in another skillet, about 1 minute. Transfer to a serving platter and cover to keep warm. Serve beef bulgogi with the tortillas, cucumber salad, and avocado, green onions, and cilantro as garnishes. Drizzle gochujang over tacos, mixing it with a little water if too thick.

KOREAN BULGOGI TACO RECIPE

Steps:

• Cut off any excess fat from the short ribs then thinly slice the beef and cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces. Place in a large bowl or in a plastic resealable bag.
• In a blender or food processor, blend the soy sauce, mirin, sugar, sesame oil, garlic, scallions and ginger. Pour half of the sauce over the short ribs, ensuring all the beef is covered. Seal tightly and marinate the short ribs in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours and up to 24 hours.
• Place the other half of the marinade in a pan and reduce over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is thick. Place in a serving bowl and reserve to drizzle on the tacos.
• For the slaw: Place the cabbage, daikon, cilantro and scallions together in a medium to large bowl.
• For the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, soy sauce, mirin and Sriracha. Slowly whisk in the olive oil. Place the dressing in the fridge until ready to use.
• For the taco assembly: Heat your griddle to high. Flash cook the meat while simultaneously caramelizing the marinade. Place your short ribs on the griddle. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes and flip. Cook an additional 3 minutes, then wrap the meat in foil and set aside.
• Grill up your tortillas. Flip after 45 seconds. Grill for another 45 seconds and remove.
• On the grilled tortillas, pile some Korean slaw, dressing, beef, reserved and reduced marinade and extra Sriracha to taste. Then, chow down.

KOREAN BEEF TACOS (BULGOGI) RECIPE

Steps:

• Thinly slice beef against the grain and place in medium bowl.
• Stir together all marinade ingredients until sugar dissolves, pour over sliced meat and stir to combine. Cover and refrigerate 4 hours or overnight for best results. Tip: Let beef stay at room temp 30 min before cooking. Chilled meat will cool a hot pan and make your meat juice out.
• Heat a large, heavy non-stick pan on high heat (no need to add extra oil). It's hot enough when a piece of meat placed in the center has a strong sizzle. Add meat and sauté without stirring for 2-3 min or until lightly browned then stir and continue cooking additional 3-5 min, stirring occasionally or until fully cooked, liquid has evaporated and the sauce has caramelized on the beef.
• Toast tortillas on a hot dry skillet or directly on the grates of your gas stove-top, turning frequently - they cook really fast so don't walk away.
• Stir together all taco sauce ingredients. For easier drizzling, transfer to a ziploc bag and snip off the corner.
• To assemble tacos, place meat over toasted tortillas and cover with generous amount of purple cabbage. Add sprigs of cilantro, diced avocado and drizzle generously with taco sauce. If desired, add a squeeze of fresh lime juice for extra freshness.

KOREAN BEEF BULGOGI TACOS WITH KIMCHEE SLAW

Steps:

• For the taco shells: Pour enough canola oil in a heavy pot or deep fryer for the wonton wrappers to be submerged completely when frying. Heat the oil until a deep-fry thermometer inserted in the oil registers 375 degrees F.
• Using a taco shell mold, fry the wonton wrappers in the oil until crispy, about 5 minutes. Drain on paper towels and allow to cool fully before using.
• For the scallion slaw: Rinse the scallions thoroughly with cold water. Prepare a bowl of ice water, add the scallions and soak for 5 minutes. Drain thoroughly.
• Combine the scallions, rice vinegar, sugar, soy sauce, chile flakes and sesame oil and let marinate for 20 minutes.
• For the bulgogi marinade: Add the garlic and onions to a food processor and process until thoroughly combined. Add the soy sauce, red wine, sesame oil, black pepper, pears, pineapple cubes and 1 1/2 cups water and process until thoroughly combined.
• Add the rib eye to a bowl, pour over the bulgogi marinade and allow the beef to marinate for at least 10 minutes.
• Heat a large saute pan over medium-high heat until hot. Remove the beef from the marinade, letting any excess marinade drip back into the bowl. Add the beef to the pan and cook until well done, about 5 minutes. (This is very important to allow the flavors of the marinade to develop completely.)
• Peel the pear and slice it into thin half-moons. Place a layer of the kimchee and then the beef into each taco shell. Garnish with the scallion slaw and sliced pears.

BULGOGI (KOREAN BBQ RIB EYE) RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Pat the steak with paper towels to absorb any excess moisture. Transfer the steak to an airtight container.
• In a blender or food processor, combine the roughly chopped white onion, Asian pear, garlic, ginger, ½ cup brown sugar, soy sauce, sesame oil, and black pepper and blend until smooth.
• Pour the marinade over the beef. Add the thinly sliced white onion and roughly chopped green onions and mix well to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight.
• Heat 1 teaspoon vegetable oil in a Korean barbecue griddle or medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan, add the bulgogi and cook for about 3 minutes, or until browned. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes, until browned on the other side.
• Transfer the bulgogi to a plate and top with the chopped green onion and toasted sesame seeds. Serve with rice.
• Enjoy!
