Ingredients

The following ingredients have 6 Servings
  • 1 large pear, peeled, seeded, and quartered
  • 1 head garlic, peeled
  • 1 small onion, peeled and quartered
  • 1 thumb-size ginger, peeled and sliced
  • 1 cup soy sauce
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup rice vinegar
  • 3 tablespoons sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/2 cup green onions, chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon sesame seeds
  • 2 pounds top sirloin or tenderloin, sliced very thinly

Instruction

  • In a food processor, process pear, onions, garlic, and ginger until pureed (the texture of applesauce).
  • In a bowl, combine soy sauce, sugar, rice vinegar, sesame oil, salt, and pepper. Stir until sugar and salt are dissolved. Add puree pear mixture, green onions, and sesame seeds. Stir until well-combined.
  • Add beef, massaging to fully incorporate marinade. Cover with film and marinate in the fridge for 4 hours but not more than 8 hours. Drain beef from marinade.
  • Over a tabletop grill pan, arrange beef slices in a single layer and cook for about 2 to 4 minutes on each side or until slightly charred and tender.
  • If using a skillet, add a tablespoon and heat over high heat. Add beef slices and cook, turning as needed, until tender and lightly browned. Serve hot.
