Cooking Instructions
  1. In a medium bowl, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, and red pepper flakes if using.

  3. Drain any excess fat from the skillet.

For extra flavor, you can marinate the beef in the sauce for 15-30 minutes before cooking. Adjust the red pepper flakes to your preferred spice level.
