# Instructions:
01 -
Combine 1/4 cup gochujang, 2 tbsp honey, 1 tbsp rice vinegar, 3 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce, and 2 tsp toasted sesame oil in a small bowl. Whisk well and set aside. This vibrant drizzle is key to your Shortcut One Skillet Bibimbap.
02 -
Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 lb lean ground beef (90/10) and cook, breaking it apart, until browned. Drain any excess fat. This forms the savory base for your Shortcut One Skillet Bibimbap.
03 -
To the browned beef, stir in 3 cloves minced garlic and 1 tsp grated fresh ginger. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Season lightly with salt and pepper to taste. This infuses the beef with essential flavors.
04 -
Add 1 cup matchstick carrots, 1 medium thinly sliced zucchini, and 8 oz sliced cremini mushrooms to the skillet. Sauté for 3-5 minutes until tender-crisp. Stir in 5 oz fresh baby spinach until just wilted.
05 -
Gently fold in 3 cups cooked short-grain rice (day-old is ideal) with the beef and vegetables in the skillet. Press the mixture down slightly and let it heat through for 2-3 minutes, allowing the bottom to crisp slightly.
06 -
While the rice heats, fry 4 large eggs to your desired doneness (sunny-side up is traditional) in a separate small pan. Alternatively, carefully make space in the skillet if it's large enough to cook them simultaneously.
07 -
Divide the Shortcut One Skillet Bibimbap (Ground Beef & Veggies) into four bowls. Top each serving with a fried egg, a generous drizzle of the gochujang sauce, sliced 2 green onions, and a sprinkle of 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds.
# Notes:
01 -
Feel free to swap ground beef for ground turkey or pork. For a vegetarian version, use firm tofu or tempeh, crumbled and sautéed.
02 -
For extra crispy rice, let the mixture cook undisturbed for an additional 2-3 minutes in the skillet before serving. A cast-iron skillet works wonders here!
03 -
Adjust the amount of gochujang in the drizzle to your preference. For less heat, use 2 tbsp; for more, add an extra tablespoon.
04 -
Leftover bibimbap can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a skillet or microwave.
