After all the breakfast and sandwich indulging of the last two weeks, I figured it was time for something a little lighter. 
Beef bulgogi is a classic Korean recipe, literally meaning “fire meat,” it is thinly sliced, marinated beef that is grilled or stir-fried. It’s perfect for stuffing in butter lettuce for lettuce wraps. Even better, you can serve all the components and let each person assemble their own.
The marinade is a mixture of soy sauce, sesame oil, sambal oelek, garlic and ginger. You can definitely prep ahead and let the meat marinate longer than outlined in the recipe, but since it’s sliced so thin, even a short marinade will impart flavor. Perfect for quick-cooking weeknight dinners! Plus leftovers are great the next day.
You can serve with any accompaniments you like, but I think kimchi, Sriracha (or other hot sauce), scallions and sesame seeds are required!
