These Korean Bulgogi Beef Bowls are a quick, flavorful meal prep recipe featuring sweet-savory ground beef, rice, vegetables, and a drizzle of sriracha. Perfect for busy weeks, they’re easy to customize, prep in 30 minutes, and pack bold Korean-inspired flavor.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound 94/6 ground beef
  • 4.5 tablespoons Korean bulgogi sauce and marinade
  • 1 cup uncooked rice (yields ~2 cups cooked)
  • 2 eggs (hard-boiled)
  • 4 ounces matchstick carrots
  • 4 servings frozen broccoli
  • Sriracha, for drizzling

Instructions

  1. (Optional) Marinate the ground beef with bulgogi sauce overnight in the fridge for enhanced flavor.
  2. Cook the rice according to package directions. Set aside to cool slightly.
  3. Hard-boil the eggs, peel, and slice each in half.
  4. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the marinated ground beef until browned and fully cooked.
  5. Divide the rice into 4 meal prep containers (about 1/2 cup each).
  6. Evenly portion the cooked bulgogi beef on top of the rice.
  7. Add raw matchstick carrots and frozen broccoli to each container—they will soften when reheated.
  8. Top each bowl with half a boiled egg and drizzle with sriracha.
  9. Refrigerate until ready to eat. Reheat in the microwave before serving.

Notes

  • White jasmine rice, brown rice, or cauliflower rice all work well.
  • Add sesame seeds, scallions, or kimchi for extra flavor.
  • Gochujang can be added for a spicier twist.
  • Use lean ground turkey or chicken as a lower-fat alternative.
  • No need to cook veggies separately—the broccoli steams during reheating.
