Beef Bulgogi Bowls

I adore Beef Bulgogi. The flavors are intense and delicious, but I don’t adore the marinating. Using ground beef (or turkey) is a fantastic vehicle to get the bulgogi flavor in a fraction of the time. It’s a meal you can meal prep or take with you on the go. I typically serve it with pickled cucumbers & red onions, and a sprinkle of edamame. You can also put a fried egg on top and drizzle with more hot sauce.

Ingredients

2 lbs ground beef

1/2 C soy sauce (I use Tamari to make it gluten-free)

1/2 C packed light brown sugar

2 Tbsp sesame oil

2 Tbsp chili garlic sauce or Sriracha

1/4 C rice wine vinegar

2 Tbsp minced garlic

2 Tbsp minced ginger

1/4 cup thinly sliced shallots

Method

In a large bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, brown sugar, chili garlic sauce, rice wine vinegar, and shallots.

Heat a large skillet over medium heat.

Add ground beef. When the beef is 75% done, add in garlic and ginger. Cook until browned.

Add the sauce in and let it cook until thickened just a bit

Serve with rice and any toppings you wish.
