Korean Bbq Beef Tacos Recipes

KOREAN BEEF TACOS

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, hot water, garlic, ginger, and black pepper until the honey dissolves.
• Put the steak slices in a large zip-top bag or airtight container and pour in the marinade. Toss around to combine, then seal. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight for best results.
• Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the steak slices from the marinade with tongs and put them in the skillet (reserve the marinade); you should hear a strong sizzle. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes until lightly browned on one side, then stir the pieces around and cook for an additional 5 minutes. Reduce the heat to the lowest setting, pourin in the marinade, and let it caramelize for about 1 minute. Remove the pan from the heat.
• Assemble the tacos by placing several slices of steak on each tortilla. Add some shredded cabbage, cilantro, and avocado slices. Drizzle the dressing over the top and serve with lime wedges on the side.
• In a medium bowl, combine the sour cream, mayonnaise, lime juice, Sriracha, and garlic powder and mix well. Taste and add more Sriracha as desired.
• Use immediately or transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 5 days.

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 SHORT RIB TACOS

Steps:

• For the Braised Short Ribs: Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Season the beef pieces with some salt and pepper. Dredge the beef lightly with the flour and shake off excess; set aside. Heat 1 tablespoon butter and 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a roasting pan over medium-high heat. Brown the short rib pieces on all sides, about 10 minutes. Use more butter and oil as needed to give a golden brown and delicious surface to each piece of beef.
• Melt another tablespoon of butter in the pan. Stir in the shallots, carrots, and celery. Cook and stir until the vegetables have softened, about 10 minutes. Add the red wine, scrape up the brown bits in the pan, and reduce the wine volume by half. Stir in the beef broth, bay leaves, parsley and thyme. Add beef broth up to half the height of the contents of the pot, do not submerge. Bring the pot to a boil, cover with a tight fitting lid or aluminum foil, then transfer to the preheated oven until the short rib is very tender, about 2 1/2 to 3 hours. Once the short rib is tender, remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly. Strip the meat with a fork, cover and keep warm for the assembly stage.
• For the Korean Taco Sauce: Whisk the soy sauce, sugar, gochujang and sesame oil together until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture is smooth. You can make this a few days in advance and store tightly covered in the refrigerator.
• To Assemble the Tacos: Heat some tortillas in a dry skillet. In the same pan, add the vegetable oil, then briefly saute the Brussels sprouts, chopped onions and some salt and pepper. Add some shredded short rib and Korean Taco Sauce. Do not overcook.
• Spoon some of the taco filling into each tortilla. Serve with the Korean Taco Sauce and a lime wedge.

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.
