Korean BBQ Steak Rice Bowls with Spicy Cream Sauce are packed with bold, savory flavors from marinated steak, fresh vegetables, and a spicy creamy drizzle — all served over fluffy rice for a satisfying and balanced meal.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 lb flank or sirloin steak, thinly sliced
  • 2 cups cooked white or brown rice
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 1 cup cucumber, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup kimchi (optional)
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds (optional)
  • For the Korean BBQ Marinade:
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp grated ginger
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tsp gochujang (Korean chili paste, optional)
  • For the Spicy Cream Sauce:
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp sriracha

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix all marinade ingredients. Add sliced steak and marinate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 8 hours).
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together all spicy cream sauce ingredients. Set aside.
  3. Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook steak slices for 2-3 minutes per side until caramelized and cooked through. Set aside.

  5. Drizzle spicy cream sauce over the top and sprinkle with sesame seeds if using.
