Ingredients

Scale

For the Bulgogi Beef:

  • 1 lb thinly sliced ribeye or sirloin

  • 1/4 cup soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)

  • 2 tbsp brown sugar

  • 2 tbsp sesame oil

  • 3 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 tbsp grated fresh ginger

  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar

  • 1 tsp ground black pepper

  • 2 green onions, chopped

  • 1 tsp gochujang (optional)

For the Rice Stack:

  • 2 cups cooked jasmine or short-grain white rice

  • 1/2 cup shredded carrots

  • 1/2 cup thinly sliced cucumber

  • 1/2 cup kimchi (optional but recommended!)

  • 1/4 avocado, sliced (optional)

  • 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds

  • 1 tsp neutral oil for cooking

For the Gochujang Mayo Drizzle:

  • 2 tbsp mayonnaise

  • 1 tsp gochujang

  • 1 tsp lime juice

  • 1/2 tsp honey

Instructions

  1. Marinate the Beef: In a bowl, whisk together all marinade ingredients. Add sliced beef and coat well. Let marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight for deeper flavor.

  2. Prepare the Rice: Cook rice and let it cool slightly so it holds its shape if stacking.

  3. Make the Sauce: Whisk together mayo, gochujang, lime juice, and honey until smooth. Set aside.

  4. Cook the Beef: Heat a skillet with oil over medium-high heat. Cook the beef in batches, 2–3 minutes per side, until caramelized and cooked through.

  5. Assemble the Stack: Use a mold or bowl to layer rice, beef, veggies, and kimchi. Drizzle with sauce and sprinkle with sesame seeds and avocado slices if using. Serve immediately or prep for later!

Notes

  • Want it vegetarian? Sub tofu or mushrooms and use the same marinade!

  • The gochujang mayo brings everything together—don’t skip it.

  • Short on time? Use store-bought bulgogi beef from a Korean market.

  • For meal prep, keep rice, beef, and veggies stored separately and assemble just before eating.
