A flavorful and easy-to-make Korean-inspired grilled beef recipe, perfect for a quick and delicious meal.
Prepare the beef by slicing it into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick.
Freezing the beef slightly before slicing makes it easier to cut thinly.
In a mixing bowl, combine the soy sauce, sugar, rice wine, minced garlic, chopped scallions, sesame seeds, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Mix the marinade until the sugar is fully dissolved for even flavor distribution.
Place the beef strips in the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for 1-2 hours.
Marinating the beef longer enhances the flavor, but avoid exceeding 2 hours to prevent over-marination.
Preheat the grill to high heat and lightly oil the grates.
Ensure the grill is hot before cooking to achieve a good sear on the beef.
Grill the beef strips for 1-2 minutes on each side until nicely browned.
Avoid overcooking to maintain tenderness and juiciness.
Serve the grilled beef strips immediately, garnished with additional sesame seeds and chopped scallions if desired.
Serve with steamed rice and kimchi for a complete meal.
