Instructions

  1. Step 1

    In a small bowl, mix 2 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp mirin, and 1 tbsp sugar until dissolved. Set aside.

  2. Step 2

    Heat a large skillet over high heat. Add the 0.5 lb beef tongue slices in a single layer and sear until browned, about 1-2 minutes per side.

  3. Step 3

    Pour the soy-mirin mixture over the beef and toss to coat. Cook until the sauce thickens and glazes the meat, about 1-2 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Transfer to a plate and sprinkle with 2 sliced green onions and 1 tsp sesame seeds. Serve hot.
