Cooking Steps

Toast sesame and start prep
1
  • Before starting, preheat the oven to 450˚F. 
  • Wash and dry all produce.
  • Heat a medium pot over medium-high. When hot, add sesame seeds. 
  • Toast for 2-3 min, stirring often, until golden. (TIP: Keep your eye on them so they don't burn!) Transfer to a small bowl.
  • To the same pot, add 1 cup (2 cups) water, 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) salt. Cover and bring to a boil over high.
  • Meanwhile, using a strainer, rinse rice until water runs clear.
Cook rice and finish prep
2
  • To the boiling water, stir in rice, then reduce heat to low. Cover and cook for 13-15 min, until rice is tender and water is absorbed. Remove from heat. Set aside, still covered.
  • While rice cooks, thinly slice green onions, keeping green and white parts separate.
  • Halve zucchini lengthwise, then cut into 1/4-inch half-moons.
  • Thinly slice mushrooms.
Sear and roast steaks
3
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
  • While the pan heats, pat steaks dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper.
  • When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then steaks. Cook for 1-2 min per side, until browned.
  • Remove from heat and transfer steaks to an unlined baking sheet. Roast in the middle of the oven 7-12 min, until cooked to desired doneness.**
  • When steaks are done, transfer to a clean cutting board to rest for 2-3 min.
  • Carefully wipe out pan.
Start veggies and make sauce
4
  • Reheat the same pan over medium-high.
  • When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, zucchini and mushrooms. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for 3-4 min, stirring often, until veggies begin to soften.
  • While veggies cook, to a medium bowl, add soy sauce-mirin blend, sesame oil, sweet chili sauce and ginger-garlic puree. Stir to combine. (NOTE: This is your bulgogi sauce mixture.)
Finish veggies
5
  • To the pan of veggies, add carrots and green onion whites. Cook for 2-3 min, stirring often, until veggies are tender-crisp.
  • Stir in half the sauce mixture and any beef resting juices. Cook for 1-2 min, stirring often, until sauce is absorbed.
Finish and serve
6
  • Fluff rice with a fork. Stir in half the sesame seeds.
  • Halve steaks lengthwise, then thinly slice.
  • Divide rice between bowls.
  • Top with veggies and steak.
  • Spoon remaining sauce over steak.
  • Sprinkle remaining green onions and sesame seeds over top.

Review summary

Updated on Feb 2026
  • Flavor: Many enjoyed the dish's flavors, though some felt it lacked authentic bulgogi taste. Consider adding more bulgogi-style seasoning for a stronger flavor profile.
  • Ease of prep: Customers found the recipe straightforward to follow, with clear instructions. Some suggested using a rice cooker for convenience.
  • Suggestions: Try adding bean sprouts or spinach for extra crunch and nutrition. Consider marinating the steak beforehand to enhance its flavor.
  • Portions: Several reviewers mentioned wanting more vegetables; consider increasing the amount of zucchini and carrots in the dish.
  • Cooking method: Some found it challenging to achieve desired steak doneness in the oven. Consider pan-searing the steak instead for better control.
