Description

Korean BBQ Steak Rice Bowls with Spicy Cream Sauce are a flavorful fusion dish featuring marinated grilled steak, fluffy rice, and fresh vegetables, topped with a creamy, spicy gochujang-based sauce.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 lb flank steak or ribeye, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon grated ginger
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 cups cooked white rice
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 1 cup cucumber, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup kimchi (optional)
  • 1 green onion, chopped (for garnish)
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (for garnish)
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon gochujang (Korean chili paste)
  • 1 teaspoon lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon honey

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, rice vinegar, and black pepper. Add steak and marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat and cook marinated steak slices for 2–3 minutes per side until cooked through and caramelized. Set aside.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, gochujang, lime juice, and honey to make the spicy cream sauce.
  4. Divide rice into bowls and top with cooked steak, shredded carrots, sliced cucumber, and kimchi if using.
  5. Drizzle spicy cream sauce over the top and garnish with green onions and sesame seeds.
  6. Serve immediately while warm.

Notes

  • Use store-bought Korean BBQ marinade to save time.
  • Adjust gochujang quantity for preferred spice level.
  • Great for meal prep—store components separately and assemble before serving.
