• 1 to 1 1/4 lb. flank steak or skirt steak
• 2 tbsp. neutral-flavored oil (such as peanut or safflower)
• Salt and pepper
• 1 Asian pear or Bosc pear, peeled and coarsely grated
• ½ red or yellow onion, chopped (about 1 cup)
• 4 cloves garlic, grated
• 1-inch piece of fresh ginger, peeled and grated (about 1 tbsp.)
• About 1/2 cup beef stock
• 1 to 2 tbsp. gochujang (Korean red chile paste)
• 1 tbsp. soy sauce
• 1 tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
• 1 scant tbsp. pourable or regular light brown sugar
• 1 tbsp. toasted sesame oil
• 4 scallions, chopped
• 1 small green chile (such as jalapeño), very thinly sliced
• 2 heads Boston or Bibb lettuce or 3 heads Little Gem lettuce
• Sliced seedless cucumbers, toasted sesame seeds, and lime wedges, for serving

","preparation":"

Step 1

Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high to high.

Step 2

Cut the steak into 4 portions. Thinly slice each piece against the grain into strips that are about 2 1/2 inches long.

Step 3

Add the neutral oil, two turns of the pan, to the skillet. Add the steaks, arranging in an even layer; cook until browned on the bottom, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn the steaks; season with salt and pepper. Cook for 1 minute more.

Step 4

Add the pear and onion. Cook, tossing often, until the pear softens, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the garlic and ginger; toss until aromatic, about 1 minute. Mix in the stock, gochujang, soy sauce, Worcestershire, and sugar; simmer until slightly thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a bowl. Drizzle with the sesame oil. Top with the scallions and sliced chile.

Step 5

Serve the bulgogi with a large platter of cold lettuce leaves. Wrap the meat in the lettuce, then top with the cucumbers and sesame seeds. Serve with the lime wedges.
