Description
A flavorful Filipino-inspired dish featuring grilled Coulotte steak glazed with a savory soy mixture, served with vermicelli rice noodles stir-fried with crisp vegetables and fresh herbs.
Ingredients
1 beef Coulotte Steak or Picanha (about 2 to 3 pounds), cut into 1/2-inch thick pieces
1 bunch green onions, divided
1 package (8 ounces) vermicelli rice noodles
1 tablespoon sesame oil
3 bell peppers, thinly sliced
Fresh cilantro (optional)
Soy Glaze:
1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons sesame oil
Rub:
2 teaspoons ground ginger
2 teaspoons granulated garlic
2 teaspoons granulated onion
2 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon Korean red pepper flakes (Gochujang)
Instructions
- Combine soy glaze ingredients in a bowl; reserve half for later use.
- Mix rub ingredients in a separate bowl and set aside.
- Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
- Cut green onion bottoms into 2-inch pieces and thinly slice green tops on a bias; set tops aside.
- Alternate threading beef pieces and green onion bottoms onto ten 10-inch metal skewers. Lightly spray with cooking spray and sprinkle with 2 teaspoons of the rub.
- Grill skewers, covered, over medium heat for 8–10 minutes, turning and basting with reserved soy glaze every 2 minutes, aiming for medium rare (145°F) to medium (160°F) doneness.
- Prepare vermicelli noodles according to package directions.
- Heat sesame oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add bell peppers, reserved green onion tops, and cooked noodles. Stir-fry 3–5 minutes until peppers are crisp-tender.
- Stir in remaining soy glaze and rub. Cook and stir for 1–3 minutes until heated through.
- Plate noodle mixture and top with grilled steak and onions. Garnish with fresh cilantro if desired.
Notes
- Add shredded carrots or broccoli to stir-fried vegetables for extra crunch and color.
- Increase Korean red pepper flakes or drizzle chili oil for more heat.
- Swap vermicelli noodles for angel hair pasta or glass noodles if preferred.
- Use a broiler or cast-iron skillet to cook steak if a grill isn’t available.
- Rinse cooked noodles with warm water and toss with sesame oil to prevent sticking.
