Marinade
1 pear, cut into chunks
1/2 onion, cut into chunks
1 thumb-sized piece fresh ginger, cut into chunks
1/2 cup soy sauce
2 cloves garlic
Bulgogi
3 pounds beef tri-tip
2 tablespoons grapeseed oil
3 tablespoons gochujang ( Korean hot pepper paste )
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1/2 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 cup water
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
4 scallions, sliced, or to taste
1 (8 ounce) package cooked microwave basmati rice
kimchi for serving
steamed vegetables for serving
Directions
Combine pear, onion, ginger, 1/2 cup soy sauce, and 2 garlic cloves in the jar of a blender or food processor and pulse until marinade is smooth. Place tri-tip into a resealable plastic bag with the marinade. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or up to overnight.
Slice tri-tip thinly against the grain.
Add grapeseed oil to a skillet over medium-high heat. When skillet is hot, sear meat until nice and charred, about 1 minute on each side. Remove meat from pan.
Add gochujang, rice vinegar, soy sauce, white sugar, minced garlic, minced ginger, and 1/2 cup water to the skillet. Stir until blended and smooth. Simmer sauce for 3 minutes and return meat back to the pan; simmer meat in sauce until heated through, 1 to 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
Remove bulgogi from heat, drizzle with sesame oil, and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Heat rice in the microwave for 90 seconds, or according to package directions.
Plate bulgogi with rice, kimchi, and steamed veggies. Garnish with sliced scallions.
