Ingredients

  • 1 pound beef steak
  • 6 Bao buns
  • ¼ cup CJ Korean BBQ Sauce Kalbi, 29.63-Ounce Bottle for Ribs (1)
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp of hot pepper flakes
  • ½ cup red cabbage chopped
  • ½ cup cilantro chopped
  • ¼ peanuts chopped
  • 1 lime sliced
  • Salt and Pepper as desired

Instructions

Prepare Meat

  • Add the spices and marinate to the meat, let it sit overnight in a bowl all covered in the refrigerator.
  • Slice meat in thin slices.
  • Add a little olive oil and heat the pan, when hot sear the meat until crispy and brown.
  • Steam the boa buns at package directions

  • Add some sliced cabbage.
  • Add chopped cilantro on tip.
  • Add the crushed dried peanuts,

Notes

Slice the meat thin as possible. A little trick I learned was to let it be defrost for a little so as to slice the meat thin while it's still cold. It makes it easier to do so and just shaves off.
