Equipment

  • 1 grill or skillet
  • 1 rice cooker or pot
  • 1 mixing bowl
  • 1 whisk or fork
  • 1 cutting board
  • 1 measuring cups and spoons
  • 4 serving bowls

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb flank steak
  • 2 cups cooked white or brown rice
  • ½ cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon ginger, minced
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons gochujang (Korean chili paste) Adjust according to spice level preference.
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
  • 4 stalks green onions, chopped

Instructions
 

  • In a mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, minced garlic, and minced ginger. Whisk until well blended.
  • Place the flank steak in a shallow dish or resealable bag and pour the marinade over it. Allow to marinate for at least 15 minutes or up to 2 hours for more flavor.
  • While the steak marinates, cook your rice according to the package instructions in a rice cooker or pot.
  • Prepare the spicy cream sauce by combining mayonnaise, gochujang, rice vinegar, and lime juice in another bowl. Whisk together until smooth and well mixed.
  • Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until it reaches your desired level of doneness. Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing thinly against the grain.
  • To assemble the rice bowls, start with a base of cooked rice. Top with sliced steak, a drizzle of spicy cream sauce, chopped green onions, and sesame seeds.
  • Optionally, add vegetables like steamed broccoli or sliced bell peppers for extra color and nutrition.
