Indulge in this quick Korean BBQ beef & cheddar skillet—rich, savory, and perfect for crazy good eats in just 30 minutes!
Ingredients
- • beef sirloin, thinly sliced: 1 lb
- • soy sauce: 1/4 cup
- • brown sugar: 2 tbsp
- • gochujang (Korean chili paste): 1 tbsp
- • garlic, minced: 3 cloves
- • sesame oil: 1 tbsp
- • vegetable oil: 2 tbsp
- • cheddar cheese, shredded: 1 1/2 cups
- • green onions, chopped: 3
- • sesame seeds: 1 tbsp
- • cooked rice: 2 cups
Instructions
- 1 Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the vegetable oil and swirl to coat the pan.
- 2 In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, brown sugar, gochujang, and minced garlic. Stir well to create a smooth glaze.
- 3 Add the thinly sliced beef to the hot skillet. Sear the beef for 2-3 minutes on each side until it develops a rich brown crust.
- 4 Pour the Korean BBQ glaze over the beef. Stir to coat the meat evenly and let it simmer for 5 minutes to thicken and caramelize.
- 5 Reduce the heat to low. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the beef. Cover the skillet and let the cheese melt completely, about 3-4 minutes.
- 6 Garnish the skillet with chopped green onions and sesame seeds. Serve the sizzling beef and melted cheese over a bed of warm cooked rice.
Serving Suggestions
- • For a complete meal, consider serving this Korean BBQ Beef & Cheddar Skillet with a side of crunchy kimchi to add a tangy contrast to the rich flavors. A fresh cucumber salad dressed with rice vinegar, sesame oil, and a sprinkle of sesame seeds will provide a refreshing balance to the dish. Pair this indulgent dish with a crisp, cold lager or a light red wine like Pinot Noir to complement the savory and spicy notes. For a non-alcoholic option, a chilled iced green tea would be a delightful match.
Storage Tips
To store leftovers, place the beef and rice in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 days. To reheat, transfer the beef to a skillet over medium heat and cover with a lid to melt the cheese again. Alternatively, use a microwave-safe dish to reheat in the microwave until heated through, stirring halfway for even warmth.
