Ingredients

  • 500 grams Lean beef sirloin
  • 60 ml Low sodium soy sauce
  • 3 tablespoons Brown sugar
  • 3 cloves Garlic
  • 1 tablespoon Fresh ginger
  • 1 small Pear (preferably Asian pear)
  • 2 stalks Green onions
  • 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
  • 0.5 teaspoon Red pepper flakes
  • 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds
  • 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 1 for cooking Nonstick cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Thinly slice the lean beef sirloin against the grain into 1/8-inch thick strips. If easier, partially freeze the beef before slicing.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the low sodium soy sauce, brown sugar, minced garlic, grated ginger, grated pear, finely chopped green onions, sesame oil, red pepper flakes, sesame seeds, and black pepper.

Step 3

Add the sliced beef to the marinade, ensuring all pieces are well coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for a more intense flavor.

Step 4

Preheat a large, non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and lightly spray with nonstick cooking spray.

Step 5

Once the skillet is hot, add the marinated beef, spreading it out into a single layer. Cook the beef in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding.

Step 6

Stir-fry the beef for about 5-7 minutes, or until fully cooked through and slightly caramelized.

Step 7

Remove the beef from the skillet and transfer it onto a serving platter.

Step 8

Serve the low fat bulgogi beef hot, garnished with additional chopped green onions and sesame seeds if desired. Enjoy with steamed rice or wrapped in lettuce leaves for a low-carb option.
