Instructions

Make BBQ Marinade & Steak:

1. Combine soy sauce, honey, garlic, scallions, black pepper, sesame oil in a mixing bowl. Whisk until honey dissolves and set aside.

2. Thinly slice the ribeye. You can put it in the freezer, in plastic wrap, for 20 minutes the steak to make it easier to slice. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.

3. Add marinade to the sliced ribeye. Let rest for at least 20 minutes or longer.

4. Cook ribeye on medium-high heat in an oiled grill pan. Be sure to shake off any excess marinade from the meat before adding to the pan. Flip once, cooking for a few minutes on each side, until there are grill marks.

Make Kimchi Slaw

Assemble the Tacos
