Ingredients

1 pound beef sirloin, thinly sliced
1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon minced ginger
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 green onions, finely chopped
1 tablespoon gochujang (optional)
1 tablespoon vegetable oil for cooking

Instructions

In a mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, minced garlic, minced ginger, black pepper, gochujang (if using), and chopped green onions. Mix well until the sugar dissolves.
Add the thinly sliced beef to the marinade, ensuring each piece is well coated. Cover and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to 2 hours.
Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat and add vegetable oil.
Remove excess marinade from the beef slices and place them in the pan in a single layer. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until cooked through and slightly caramelized.
Serve hot with lettuce leaves for wrapping and steamed rice on the side.
