For a fast weeknight meal with depth of flavor, try this easy sheet pan Korean beef bulgogi. Thin slices of sirloin steak are marinated in a sweet and savory sauce then roasted with veggies for a complete meal with minimal cleanup.
What Is Bulgogi?
Bulgogi, sometimes called Korean barbecue beef, is a popular Korean dish of thinly sliced, marinated beef. The name literally means “fire meat” in Korean. Traditional bulgogi is grilled, but this recipe is adapted for the oven by using a rimmed baking sheet. Slicing the beef thinly allows it to cook quickly under high heat alongside crisp-tender onions and snap peas.
The steak marinates in a bulgogi marinade bursting with flavor from ingredients like soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame, ginger and garlic. The marinade tenderizes the beef while infusing it with sweet and savory flavor. This easy one-pan meal is on the table in under an hour.
Bulgogi Marinade Ingredients
The marinade is truly what makes this dish stand out. Here are its key components:
. Soy sauce – for salty umami flavor
. Brown sugar – adds sweetness
. Worcestershire sauce – extra depth of flavor
. Ginger and garlic – aromatic and earthy
. Gochujang or chili garlic sauce – a touch of heat
. Sesame oil and seeds – nutty sesame flavor
Marinating the Beef
For the most flavorful beef, marinate the sliced sirloin for at least 1 hour and up to overnight. The thin slices allow the marinade to penetrate quickly.
