Bulgogi Beef Pizza with Sesame Crust

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Main Courses Quick Meals
Bulgogi ('fire meat') is Korea's national pride: thin sliced beef marinated in soy-pear-sesame sauce, seared quickly. On a pizza, the salty-sweet beef, piquant sauce, and cheese create a new dimension. Like condensing a Korean BBQ dinner into a single slice.

Instructions

1 ✓

Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). In a hot skillet with a little oil, flash sear the thin marinated beef for 1-2 minutes. Don't cook through, just brown it!

Tip: Marinade sugar caramelizes fast—watch for burning!
2 ✓

Roll dough, place on sheet. Brush rim with sesame oil, spread center with Gochujang sauce.

Tip: Sesame oil aroma is amazing when baked.
3 ✓

Sprinkle cheese. Distribute seared beef and thinly sliced red onion.

Tip: Spread meat out so it heats evenly.
4 ✓

Bake 12-15 minutes until crust is golden.

Tip: Cover with foil if meat edges darken too much.
5 ✓

Remove, cool slightly. Top with fresh sliced scallions and sesame seeds.

Tip: Cold/hot contrast and onion crunch completes the dish.

Recipe FAQ

Why sear the meat first?
Raw meat releases too much juice, and might not tenderize in 15 mins baking. Flash searing seals in flavor.
What beef to use?
Well-marbled beef (ribeye or sirloin) sliced paper-thin while partially frozen.
