Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Whisk gochujang, soy sauce, honey, garlic, and sesame oil in a small bowl until smooth.

  2. Step 2

    Heat a large skillet over medium-high until it shimmers. Working in two batches, sear beef 60 seconds per side without stirring.

  3. Step 3

    Return all beef to the skillet. Pour the sauce over and toss to coat evenly.

  4. Step 4

    Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until sauce reduces and beef is glossy and caramelized, about 5 minutes.

  5. Step 5

    Serve immediately while the glaze is still hot and sticky.

Tools you’ll need

  • large skillet (12-inch cast iron or stainless steel preferred)
