Best Korean Sirloin Recipes

KOREAN SIRLOIN

Steps:

• Stir together in a small bowl soy sauce, ginger, brown sugar, sesame oil, cayenne and garlic.
• Pour marinade into a large ziploc bag, then add steak and turn to coat. Refrigerate for 1 to 4 hours turning bag several times.
• Heat a ridged grill pan over medium-high heat until very hot. Remove the steak from the bag, pour the marinade into a 1-quart saucepan and reserve. Pat the steak dry with paper towel and cook for 6 to 8 minutes per side for a medium rare steak.
• Remove steak to a cutting board and let stand for 10 minutes.
• Add 2 tbsp of water to the marinade in the saucepan and heat to boiling over high heat, boil for 2 minutes.
• Slice steak into thin strips diagonally against the grain. Serve with the cooked marinade.

EASY BULGOGI (KOREAN BBQ BEEF)

Steps:

• Combine yellow onion, white and light green parts of green onions, soy sauce, sugar, sesame seeds, garlic, sesame oil, red pepper flakes, ginger, and black pepper in a bowl until marinade is well mixed. Add steak slices to marinade; cover and refrigerate, 1 hour to 1 day.
• Heat a skillet over medium heat. Working in batches, cook and stir steak and marinade together in the hot skillet, adding honey to caramelize the steak, until steak is cooked through, about 5 minutes. Garnish bulgogi with green parts of green onions.

VELVET STEAK WITH KOREAN CHILI BUTTER

Steps:

• Whisk egg whites, cornstarch, rice wine, and soy sauce for marinade together in a bowl until very smooth and foamy.
• Trim silver skin from sirloin steaks. Place steaks between 2 pieces of plastic wrap on a cutting board and pound to a thickness of about 1/4 inch. Transfer steaks to a rimmed plate and lightly sprinkle both sides with kosher salt.
• Pour marinade over top and flip a few times to make sure steaks are well coated on both sides. Cover with plastic wrap, or transfer steaks and marinade to a zip-top bag, and refrigerate for 6 to 12 hours, flipping once or twice while marinating.
• Mix butter, chili paste, salt, and green onions for chili butter together in a small bowl. Taste and adjust if needed. Set aside at either room temperature or in the refrigerator until needed.
• Remove steaks from the refrigerator and toss a few more times in the marinade.
• Heat vegetable oil in a large nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Add steak and pan-fry until meat springs back to the touch and is medium-rare, 3 to 4 minutes per side, or to desired doneness. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C).
• Remove from heat and place steaks on warm plates. Let rest for 3 to 4 minutes. Top with chili butter and green onions.
