Marinade

  • 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce For marinating beef
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil For marinating beef
  • 1 clove minced garlic Optional, for extra flavor
  • 1 teaspoon sugar Optional, for balancing flavors

Main Ingredients

  • 1 pound beef sirloin, thinly sliced For bulgogi
  • 1 cup kimchi, chopped For added flavor
  • 1 medium yellow onion, sliced For sautéing
  • 1 cup bell peppers, sliced Any color, for color and crunch
  • 4 slices provolone or American cheese For a creamy finish

Preparation

  • In a bowl, mix soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, and sugar. Add the thinly sliced beef sirloin and marinate for about 15-30 minutes.
  • While the beef is marinating, chop the kimchi and slice the onion and bell peppers.

Cooking

  • Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Add the marinated beef to the skillet and cook for about 3-5 minutes until it browns.
  • Add the sliced onion and bell peppers to the skillet. Cook until the vegetables are tender, about 3-4 minutes.
  • Stir in the chopped kimchi and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
  • Lay the cheese slices on top of the meat and vegetable mixture. Cover the skillet with a lid and let it cook for 1-2 minutes until the cheese melts.

Serve the kimchi bulgogi mixture on a fresh hoagie roll or your favorite bread. You can add extra kimchi on the side for more flavor. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
