Neobiani (Korean Grilled Marinated Beef)

Ingredients

Beef sirloin

1 pound, thinly sliced against the grain

Soy sauce

1/4 cup

Sugar

2 tablespoons

Garlic

4 cloves, minced

Ginger

1 tablespoon, grated

Sesame oil

2 tablespoons

Black pepper

1/2 teaspoon

Green onions

2, chopped

Vegetable oil

1 tablespoon (for cooking)

Instructions

1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sugar, minced garlic, grated ginger, sesame oil, chopped green onions, and black pepper until the sugar is dissolved and all ingredients are well combined.
2. Add the thinly sliced beef to the marinade, ensuring each slice is well coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it marinate for at least 1 hour in the refrigerator, or overnight for deeper flavor.
3. When ready to cook, heat the vegetable oil in a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
4. Carefully add the marinated beef slices in a single layer to the hot pan. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the beef is nicely browned and cooked to your desired doneness.
5. Once cooked, remove the beef from the pan and let it rest for a few minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
6. Serve the Neobiani hot with a side of steamed rice and your choice of banchan (Korean side dishes) such as kimchi or pickled vegetables. Enjoy!
