Note

This dish is similar to Bulgogi, a popular Korean national dish.

While the title suggests beef, this recipe uses pork tenderloin. You can substitute beef slices if preferred.

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently to maintain tenderness.

For best results, ensure the pork is sliced thinly before marinating to allow for even cooking and flavor absorption.
