Step 5

Pour in the bulgogi marinade and mix the meat well until it's fully combined.

Step 6

Marinate the meat for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours.

Step 7

Get a large skillet, set to medium high heat, add in 1 tbsp of oil, once hot, add in some of the marinated beef, we are cooking it in batches to make sure we can get a nice char, if we cook it all at once it will steam and never get a good caramelized color on the steak. Spread the meat out into a single layer and cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes.

After the 2-3 minutes mix the meat around and once again spread it out into an even layer. Continue cooking for 2-3 more minutes.

Step 9

Start mixing the meat once more stirring and cooking for about 3-4 more minutes or until cooked all over and parts of the meat are getting charred. Remove the meat from the pan and set aside.

Step 10

Continue cooking the meat in batches until all cooked through. Add more oil as needed into you pan between batches.

Step 11

To serve the tacos, warm up corn tortillas, top them with the bulgogi, hot sauce, chopped kimchi, cucumber kimchi, pickled red onions, the sliced tops of the green onions and toasted sesame seeds.
