Bulgogi Steak Lettuce Wraps
Elevated Dinners, Impressively Easy
- Soy
- Sesame
- Wheat
- Eggs
The star of our spin on Korean BBQ is juicy sirloin steak sizzled to savory-sweet perfection in bulgogi sauce (one of our favorite ways to pack in that umami-rich sesame-soy flavor we love so much) and sprinkled with crisp, nutty sesame seeds. You’ll serve it in crisp lettuce cups along with fluffy rice, quick-pickled carrots, and tangy chili sauce-spiked mayonnaise that adds just the right amount of heat for the perfect choose-your-own-adventure of a meal. Best of all, this dish was made for sharing—make your lettuce wraps just the way you like ‘em (it’s all about customization!).

Cooking Steps
• Wash and dry produce. • Trim scallions; cut scallion whites into 1-inch pieces and thinly slice scallion greens. Trim root end from lettuce; separate leaves. • In a small microwave-safe bowl, mix shredded carrots, vinegar, 1 tsp water, 1 tsp sugar, a big pinch of salt, and pepper (for 4, use a medium bowl, 2 tsp water, and 2 tsp sugar). Cover with plastic wrap; microwave for 30 seconds. Set aside to pickle, stirring occasionally.
• Pat steak* dry; thinly slice crosswise into strips. Season all over with salt and pepper. • Drizzle oil in a hot large pan. Add steak and scallion whites; cook, stirring occasionally, until scallions are charred and steak is cooked to desired doneness, 3-6 minutes. • In the last minute of cooking, stir in half the bulgogi sauce (all for 4). Cook until slightly thickened.
• Meanwhile, massage rice in package to break up grains; partially open package. Microwave until warmed through, 90 seconds. TIP: Microwave times may vary. Be careful when handling and opening the pouch.
• In a second small bowl, mix chili sauce and mayonnaise. Taste and season with salt and pepper if desired. • Fan lettuce leaves out on a plate or board. Place rice, steak, pickled carrots (draining first), and creamy chili sauce in separate serving bowls. Sprinkle steak with sesame seeds and garnish rice with scallion greens. Serve family style.
Steak is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 145°.

Reviews from our home cooks
The family went crazy over these. They love lettuce wraps and love bulgogi. This was such a good combo.
This was so good! I loved the flavors and how they all combined so well once the wraps were assembled.
The combination of lettuce and steak made this meal filling and deliciously healthy.
The entire meal was delicious and easy to make. The portions are just the right size!
Better than expected! I have had trouble with bad pieces of beef for these recipes, but this was a good piece! It is ready quickly and was very flavorful. The pickled carrot shreds were way too many, but could have used 2 more green onions, or not pickled the carrot shreds for further crunch!
Loved them, so easy and flavorful and healthy, great post-gym meal
The vegetables were of amazing quality & freshness! (Winter in WI) Would have liked a spicy element & the pickling time on the carrots needed to be a bit longer for me; delicious either way
We paid extra for this one, likely due to the bulgogi steak. The flavor was great on the bulgogi itself but I think because we paid extra, we were expecting it to really wow us and it did not. We definitely were not impressed with the microwave rice. It just didn't seem like a lot of food for what we paid for. It wasn't a terrible dish but we won't order it again.
The beef bites were too big and thick. Flavor was great though. I love all the options with lettuce wraps.
I loved everything about this dish! If I had to choose what I liked least, it would be the chewiness of the meat. I would upgrade the meat to a higher quality.
