Delicious spicy korean bbq tacos with fast kimchi recipe with detailed instructions and nutritional information.

  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

  • Flank steak, thinly sliced: 1 pound
  • Gochujang (Korean chili paste): 2 tablespoons
  • Soy sauce: 3 tablespoons
  • Brown sugar: 2 tablespoons
  • Garlic, minced: 2 cloves
  • Ginger, grated: 1 teaspoon
  • Rice vinegar: 1 tablespoon
  • Corn tortillas: 12

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Marinate the steak. In a bowl, combine gochujang, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, and rice vinegar. Add the sliced flank steak and mix well. Marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator.
  2. Step 2: Cook the steak. Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Add the marinated steak and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until cooked through.
  3. Step 3: Warm the tortillas. While the steak is cooking, warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave.
  4. Step 4: Assemble the tacos. Fill each tortilla with the cooked steak and desired amount of fast kimchi (recipe below).

Notes

  • Store leftover steak and kimchi separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator for optimal freshness.
  • For best results, reheat the steak in a skillet over medium heat with a splash of water to keep it moist.
  • Garnish your tacos with sesame seeds, chopped green onions, and a drizzle of sriracha mayo for extra flavor and visual appeal.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the steak; work in batches to ensure even browning and prevent steaming.
