Ingredients

  • 2 lbs shaved ribeye
  • 1 sweet onion thinly sliced
  • 2 carrots peeled and thinly sliced
  • 1 green bell pepper thinly sliced
  • Salt pepper, garlic powder, to taste
  • 8-12 slices white American cheese
  • Large flour tortillas
  • Extra white American cheese for tortillas

MARINADE

  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tsp ginger grated
  • 1 tsp chili flakes
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 3 tbsp gochujang
  • 4 tbsp rice wine vinegar
  • 6 tbsp soy sauce
  • 6 tbsp sesame oil

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, mix together the garlic, ginger, chili flakes, brown sugar, gochujang, rice wine vinegar, soy sauce, and sesame oil until smooth. Add the shaved ribeye and toss until fully coated. Cover and marinate in the fridge for 1 to 2 hours.
  • While the steak marinates, prepare your vegetables by thinly slicing the onion, carrots, and green pepper.
  • Heat a griddle or large skillet over medium high heat, add a bit of oil, and sauté the vegetables until soft and slightly caramelized. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste, then move them to the cooler side of the griddle.
  • Increase the heat to high and add the marinated beef directly to the hot surface. Sear quickly while chopping it up with your spatula as it cooks. Cook just until browned with some crispy edges.
  • Once the beef is fully cooked, add the white American cheese on top and mix everything together as the cheese melts into the meat. Stir until fully incorporated.
  • Lay down a large flour tortilla and add an extra slice or two of cheese. Pile on the cheesy shaved ribeye mixture and sautéed veggies, then roll it up tightly like a burrito.
  • Optional Step: Wrap the rolled tortilla in foil or parchment paper and let it sit for a few minutes to help the shape set and the cheese melt even further.
  • Slice in half and enjoy while hot and cheesy. Perfectly savory, spicy, and packed with umami flavor.
