Korean beef or bulgogi is a classic dish for everyone who loves Korean food. Bring this recipe to another level with the infusion of Korean and Mexican food by reconstructing it into a taco form. It goes very well with kimchi pico de gallo and gochujang mayo sauce. Paired with a Paloma, a classic cocktail that combines premium silver tequila with grapefruit soda for a light and refreshing summer drink.

Cooking InstructionsHide images
step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine Yellow Onion (1/2), Asian Pear (1/2), Fresh Ginger (1 in), Garlic (2 cloves), Soy Sauce (2 Tbsp), Sesame Oil (1 Tbsp), Brown Sugar (1 Tbsp), and the white part of Scallion (1 bunch). Mix well.
step 2
Add Sirloin Steak (1 lb) and mix to combine—Marinate for at least 1 hour or up to overnight for more flavor in the fridge.
step 3
To prepare pico de gallo, mix together Yellow Onion (1/4) and Lime (1) in a medium mixing bowl. Let it sit for about 10 minutes.
step 4
After 10 minutes, add Kimchi (3/4 cup), Tomatoes (1 1/4 cups), Jalapeño Pepper (1), Salt (to taste), and Ground Black Pepper (to taste). Mix to combine and store in the refrigerator until ready to use.
step 5
To make the taco dressing, combine kimchi liquid, Mayonnaise (1/4 cup), Honey (1 tsp), Rice Vinegar (1 tsp), and Gochujang (1/2 tsp) in a small bowl. Mix until well combined. Set aside in the fridge until ready to use.
step 6
Once the beef is marinated, heat the cast iron skillet over high heat. Once there is smoke, cook the beef for 5-7 minutes [Let’s get some of the slow-mo of smoking]. Occasionally stir. Then set aside.
step 7
In the skillet over medium-high heat, add the White Cheddar Cheese (2 cups) and top with the Flour Tortillas (12). Cook until the cheese is melted, then flip and cook for a couple more minutes. Prepare the Paloma.
step 8
Add the PATRÓN® Silver Tequila (12 fl oz), Grapefruit Soda (18 fl oz), Lime Juice (3 fl oz), and Salt (6 pinches) to an ice-filled highball glass and stir.
step 9
Garnish with a slice of Grapefruit (6 slices).
