Korean BBQ Beef Croissant
Mini sandwiches filled with tender, marinated beef and all the best parts of Korean BBQ, tucked inside a warm, flaky croissant.
Ingredients
- 1 pound thinly sliced beef sirloin or ribeye works well
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1/2 teaspoon ginger grated
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes optional, for a little heat
- 6 mini croissants
- 1/4 cup shredded carrots
- 2 tablespoons chopped green onions
- Sesame seeds for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, rice vinegar, garlic, ginger, black pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using).
- Add the thinly sliced beef to the marinade, making sure all the pieces are well coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours.
- Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated beef in a single layer. You might need to do this in batches.
- Cook for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until the beef is cooked through and slightly caramelized.
- While the beef is cooking, slice the mini croissants in half horizontally.
- Once the beef is cooked, remove it from the pan and let it rest for a few minutes. Then, fill each croissant with a generous portion of the Korean BBQ beef.
- Top with shredded carrots and chopped green onions. Sprinkle with sesame seeds, if desired.
- Serve warm and Enjoy.
