Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1.5 lbs Beef sirloin thinly sliced
  • 0.5 cup Soy sauce
  • 0.25 cup Mirin
  • 0.25 cup Sake
  • 2 tbsp Sugar
  • 2 cloves Garlic minced
  • 1 inch Ginger grated
  • 1 tbsp Vegetable oil
  • 4 cups Cooked rice for serving
  • 0.25 cup Green onions chopped for garnish
  • 1 tbsp Sesame seeds for garnish

Equipment

  • Medium bowl
  • Whisk
  • Large skillet or wok

Method
 

Teriyaki Sauce and Beef Preparation
  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, mirin, sake, sugar, minced garlic, and grated ginger to create the teriyaki sauce.
  2. Add the thinly sliced beef sirloin to the teriyaki sauce, ensuring all pieces are well-coated, then let it marinate for at least 15 minutes at room temperature.
Cooking the Beef
  1. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat until shimmering.
  2. Carefully add the marinated beef to the hot skillet, spreading it in a single layer to ensure even cooking, and cook for 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the beef is browned and cooked through.
Serving the Bowl
  1. Divide the cooked rice among four individual serving bowls, creating a base for the beef.
  2. Top each bowl generously with the cooked teriyaki beef, then sprinkle with chopped green onions and sesame seeds for garnish before serving immediately.

Notes

For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the teriyaki sauce. You can also add some steamed vegetables like broccoli or snap peas for a more complete meal.
