Spicy Bulgogi Marinated Pork

"This comes from the author of the Eating and Living blog, a Korean-American mom with some great recipes. The contrast between the spicy meat and the crisp cool lettuce leaves is just delicious and fun. I can buy the meat sliced for bulgogi at my local Korean market, but if you don't have one of those handy, you might want to partially freeze your meat, which will help you slice it very thin. I like to serve this with rice. Prep time does not include marinating time."

  1. What a spicy dish...we really enjoyed it...mine came out dark due to not attending it while it was cooking...but it sure was tasty...the hubby enjoyed his with rice and a few butter lettuce leaves...I just used the lettuce leaves...made for FYC tag game...
     
  2. Boy this is just delicious! Tons of flavor and so easy to make. I used thin-sliced pork chops and cut those into thin strips before marinating. I let the meat marinate while the rice was steaming (about 45 minutes) then cooked it up in a flash. Great recipe - thanks for sharing a keeper!
     
  3. Love the bold and vibrant flavors of this dish! I had every intention of wrapping it with iceberg lettuce leaves that I had in the fridge, but someone (daughter and hubs) decided to use it on a salad! Rather, I topped it on top of some fried rice that I had made which went perfectly. Used pork tenderloin and it came out sooo-very tender and moist. What a great meal this made for us tonight! Thank you, duonyte, for sharing. Made it for Players Favorites - 5 Star Gems tag game.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

My screen name is a diminutive in Lithuanian for bread, so you won't be suprised to learn that I love to bake bread. In recent years I have been baking a lot of sourdough breads and have several starters sitting in my refrigerator. But I like to cook a lot of other things, as well, especially from various cultures. The cat wishes I would concentrate on meat and fish... I joined a few years ago but started posting recipes and participating in forums just recently - I wish I had done so earlier. Recipezaar is a great community! Right now I am a co-host for the Breads and Baking and the Eastern Europe forums - I hope to see you there!
