One of my dearest friends from Seminary is a native Korean. On a few occasions, we would go to either a Korean restaurant or visit a Korean supermarket, where she would take the time to educate me on Korean food culture. One of my most favorite dishes was Bulgogi (which is Korea’s version of BBQ beef). Despite that Korean food culture tends to gravitate towards seafood (I do NOT! haha!), this was one of the highlights that I would look forward to whenever my friend Yun and I would dine together.
I recently came across this recipe, which was advertised as clean. I took it a step further and made some cleaner substitutions. Bulgogi is also designed to be grilled, but since my grill was buried under snow the first time I came across this recipe (northern problems, y’all), I threw it in the crockpot, and made a few more tweaks.
21 Day Fix friends, I would count this as 1 Red,
