Korean Bowl

Korean Bowl

I just can’t express with words how good this Korean Bowl is! So, I’ll use pictures. I know it just sounds like rice and meat, but it’s so much more! The meat is cooked to perfection in a salty and flavorful soy sauce and served over warm and buttery rice. I, of course, put my healthy spin on it so it’s guilt-free!

I always start by getting all of my ingredients out and washed, so they’re ready to go. I get the rice cooking so it’s ready when the meat and veggies are done. I use short-grain brown rice. I love the chewy bite it has!

Then, I dice up the veggies so they’re ready when I need them. I heat up some oil on my favorite cast-iron skillet, and saute the shallot, garlic, and ginger until soft.

Next, I add in the meat and cook until no pink remains.

Then, I sprinkle on the salt, onion powder, and stir to combine. I pour in the soy sauce and lime juice and simmer and stir until the sauce thickens and completely coats the meat and no sauce remains.

Next, it’s time to plate up! Start with some rice, then top with meat. Garnish with fresh avocado, scallions, and sesame seeds. Drizzle with some Sriracha and you’ve got yourself a very impressive dinner in minutes!

This Korean Bowl is so easy and so flavorful. It will be a fan favorite in your house!
