Creating Korean BBQ Steak Rice Bowls with Spicy Cream Sauce can be easy if you follow these simple steps:
1. Marinate the Steak: In a bowl, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, minced garlic, minced ginger, and crushed red pepper flakes. Add the flank steak or sirloin to the marinade and let it sit for at least 10 minutes.
2. Prepare the Spicy Cream Sauce: In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise, sriracha sauce, lime juice, and honey (if using) until smooth. Adjust the sriracha according to your desired spice level.
3. Cook the Rice: Prepare the rice according to package directions if not using pre-cooked rice. Set aside.
4. Cook the Steak: Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, remove the steak from the marinade and add it to the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until cooked to your desired doneness. Remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes.
5. Sauté the Vegetables: In the same skillet, add sliced bell peppers and shredded carrots. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until slightly tender.
6. Slice the Steak: Once the steak has rested, slice it thinly against the grain.
7. Assemble the Bowls: In bowls, start with a base of cooked rice. Top with sautéed vegetables and sliced steak.
8. Drizzle the Sauce: Generously drizzle the spicy cream sauce over the bowls.
9. Garnish: Finish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds for extra flavor and crunch.
10. Serve Immediately: Enjoy your delicious Korean BBQ Steak Rice Bowls while warm.
