Beef Bulgogi

Yet another low cal YUMMY, YUMMY, YUMMY dinner! (Agreed by the best food critic I know...my 4 year old, darling, picky eater of meat!)

I was totally planning on taking a picture of this one with the leftovers, but, umm...there weren't any. :-) If you have never ventured out into Korean-style food, this is your chance!

BEEF BULGOGI
Megan B. (allrecipes.com)

Ingredients:
1 pound flank steak, thinly sliced
5 Tbsp. soy sauce
2 1/2 Tbsp. white sugar
1/4 cup chopped green onion
2 Tbsp. minced garlic
2 Tbsp. sesame seeds
2 Tbsp. sesame oil (I used olive oil, because that is what I had)
1/2 tsp ground black pepper

Directions:
1- Place beef in shallow dish. Combine soy sauce, sugar, green onion, garlic, sesame seeds, oil, and pepper into a small bowl. Pour over beef. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight.

2-Preheat outdoor grill on high heat, and lightly oil grate. (I did this outside in Idaho FREEZING January weather....totally worth it!)

3-Quickly grill beef on hot grill until slightly charred and cooked through. (approx 1-2 minutes per side.)

Serving:
The original recipe says to put some of the meat and some white rice in a piece of red leaf lettuce and roll it up. This sounds so yummy as well, but all I did was serve the meat over white rice, and it was more than a hit!

Interested in calories? this recipe serves 4 (actually a lot of meat per person) and is only 232 calories a serving. :-)
