These are seriously the best Korean beef tacos EVER. Super simple to make, the tender beef + quick slaw + amazing sauce is a flavor explosion you’ll be dreaming about for a long time.

Meals. You know the ones. The meals you eat that haunt your every waking moment, the meals you could eat day in and day out and still want more, the meals that become the new standard for every other meal you’ll ever eat.

Spicy Korean Pork Bulgogi Tacos

These crazy, crazy, crazy good Korean beef tacos definitely fall into the latter category. They are so incredible, you guys. I’ll be sad if you don’t find a way to experience the deliciousness as soon as possible. Like maybe today would be good?

The succulent, flavorful beef bathed in simple but dramatic flavors is the definite star of the show. Tender and caramelized, it’s whoa-good. And dangerously easy to keep snitching piece by piece from the pan. Perhaps the disclaimer on this recipe should be: you

You could experiment with beef short ribs or other types of steak (like sirloin or round), although the beef may not be quite as tender. I like to cook the marinaded steak in a skillet (cast iron or nonstick), but I’ve included a quick note in the recipe for how to turn this into a grilling opportunity.

Although that crazy good Korean beef is the star, it definitely gets a run for its money thanks to the quick slaw and sauce to end all sauces. Both take mere minutes to throw together and the grand combination of tortilla + tender beef + tangy veggie slaw + spicy creamy sauce is exactly why I cannot stop thinking about this meal.

Just looking at these pictures, I’m struggling to type up coherent thoughts, because all I really want to do is make sure these Korean beef tacos are staring me in the face tonight for dinner.

It’s already made an adapted appearance in this quick and easy banh mi flatbread recipe, and I can’t guarantee we won’t see it in at least 100 other recipes before this blog has lived its full life. It’s a testament to me how a few, simple, pantry-staple ingredients can combine into something so completely magical.

Korean Bulgogi Sauce Beef Tacos

These Korean beef tacos are a total explosion of flavor and texture. I’m not the only one who goes bananas over them, either. The last time I made them, I was fighting my 12-year old for the privilege of cleaning up dinner so the last bits of beef in the skillet could be “cleaned up” unnoticed.

While the list of ingredients may seem daunting, I promise that everything comes together super fast. Both the quick slaw and the sauce to end all sauces can be made in advance. And since the beef marinades for at least 4 hours (or up to 24 hours!), it means that when you’re ready to put it all together, it happens very, very quickly (20 minutes or less).

I’m excited about every single recipe I post here on this blog, but I cannot wait to hear what you think of these Korean beef tacos. I hope they rock your world like they’ve rocked mine.

Korean Kalbi Taco

For a Grilling Option: leave the steak whole/unsliced and marinade. Grill the steak to desired doneness, let rest for 10-15 minutes, slice thinly across the grain. Pour marinade into a pan and simmer on the stove for 10-15 minutes (add a couple teaspoons of cornstarch prior to simmering for a thicker sauce). Serve sliced steak with the sauce.

Slaw: we like to load our tacos up with the slaw. Like, lots of it. If you don’t think you’ll pile on as much and don’t want leftovers, you could halve the slaw ingredients.

Talk about flavor! My Korean Tacos with Bulgogi Beef are out of this world delicious, vibrant, tender, and flavorful. After you make them once, you’ll be craving them again and again.

Mini Korean Tacos

These Korean beef tacos take a bit of planning and preparation but they’re well worth it! Homemade kimchi is a shining star in these tacos so plan to make it a week ahead of time. You can even double or triple the batch so you have leftovers to enjoy on poke, taco bowls, or with shrimp.

Once the Bulgogi beef, kimchi, and chili garlic aioli are ready, layer the elements with cooling slices of avocado and scallions into fresh corn or flour tortillas. Enjoy the spicy bites next to freshly cooked instant pot rice and a cooling Thai cucumber salad.

Avocado slices and green onion layered in the tacos play with the flavors and help to cool down the spice. Some Korean tacos are made with chicken or pork instead of beef but I prefer the rich and tender marinated bulgogi ribeye instead.

Bbq Cauliflower Tacos With Green Tahini Sauce

I like to make a creamy chili garlic sauce for my bulgogi tacos and it’s so, so super yummy and made with simple ingredients. Here’s all you’ll need:

Korean bulgogi (meaning “fire” and “meat”) beef is tender pieces of thinly sliced and marinated beef. The slices are marinated in a sweet and savory mix of soy sauce, ginger, brown sugar, pear, garlic, and sesame before being pan fried or grilled.

It’s my favorite part of this recipe because the meat caramelizes a bit in the hot skillet and turns out super tender. Make sure you use a large skillet (I use a 12-inch skillet) so each piece can cook evenly.

Spicy Korean Chicken Tacos

First, marinate the thinly sliced steak by adding it to a bowl with the shredded pear and onion, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, brown sugar, mirin, and sesame oil. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the fridge for at least 2 hours or up to 24 hours.

30 minutes before cooking, take the steak out of the marinade and combine it with the scallions in a bowl. Cook the steak and scallions in a hot skillet with some oil for a few minutes.

Make the chili garlic aioli by mixing all of the ingredients in a bowl (you can do this up to 3 days ahead to save time). Assemble the tacos by layering beef, kimchi, avocado, green onions, aioli, and sesame seeds in tortillas and enjoy!
