Ingredients
Before we get cooking, here’s what you need to gather:
- 1 lb beef (thinly sliced, such as ribeye or sirloin)
- 1 onion (sliced)
- 1/4 cup soy sauce (or coconut aminos for a Whole30 option)
- 1/4 cup mirin (or a little honey with water if you’re looking for a substitute)
- 1 tablespoon sugar (can use coconut sugar or omit for Whole30)
- 1 cup beef broth
- Cooked rice (or cauliflower rice for a low-carb version)
- Green onions (chopped, for garnish)
- Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Now that we’ve got our ingredients laid out, let’s get into the nitty-gritty:
- In a large skillet, heat up a little oil over medium-high heat. Toss in the sliced onions and sauté until they’re soft and translucent.
- Add your beef to the skillet, cooking it until it’s browned and cooked through. Don’t worry about it being perfect; it’s all going to get flavorful in the next steps!
- In a bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, mirin, sugar, and beef broth.
- Pour this mixture over the beef and onions in the skillet. Bring it to a simmer, letting it cook for about 10-15 minutes. You want those flavors to meld beautifully.
- While that simmers, go ahead and prepare your rice or cauliflower rice.
- Once your beef is nice and tender and the sauce has thickened, it’s time to serve it up! Spoon that savory beef and sauce over your rice, and don’t forget to garnish with green onions and sesame seeds if you like.
And there you have it! A warm, comforting bowl of Gyudon that’s perfect for lunch or dinner. So gather your family or friends around, share a bowl, and enjoy every bite of this delightful dish. Happy cooking!
