Ingredients

  • 1 pound beef ribeye, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup coconut aminos
  • 1 medium pear, grated
  • 0.5 medium onion, grated
  • 4 large garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 teaspoons ginger, grated
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 2 medium green onions, chopped
  • 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon avocado oil
  • 8 large lettuce leaves

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine coconut aminos, grated pear, grated onion, minced garlic, grated ginger, sesame oil, chopped green onions, red pepper flakes, and black pepper.

Step 2

Add the thinly sliced ribeye beef to the marinade mixture, ensuring all pieces are coated well. Cover and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or overnight for the best flavor.

Step 3

Once the beef has marinated, heat the avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 4

Remove the beef from the marinade, allowing excess marinade to drip off, and cook in a single layer in the skillet. Do not overcrowd the pan; cook in batches if necessary.

Step 5

Sear the beef for about 2-3 minutes on each side until well browned and cooked through.

Step 6

Transfer the cooked bulgogi to a serving platter.

Step 7

Serve the Korean BBQ Bulgogi wrapped in large lettuce leaves, and enjoy it fresh.
