Ingredients:
- 12 oz of A5 Wagyu Ribeye
- 1 chunk of wagyu fat
- 1 egg yolk
- 2-3 tablespoons of yakiniku sauce
- 2 cups cooked Japanese rice
- 2 green onions, thinly sliced
Instructions:
- Thaw the meat safely in your fridge overnight. Before cooking, set the meat on the counter to bring it to room temperature and pat dry.
- Season lightly with salt and pepper
- Heat the pan to medium-high or high heat.
- Use a piece of trimmed wagyu fat to coat the pan thoroughly and wait for the pan to begin smoking.
- Sear both sides of the steak for about 1-2 minutes without excessive flipping, so it develops a golden-brown crust on the outside and stays juicy on the inside.
- Let the steak rest for about 3-5 mins before slicing and placing it in the bowl.
- Assemble everything in a bowl. Start with rice, place the slices of beef on the rice, drizzle your yakiniku sauce over, place the egg yolk on top, and garnish with green onions.
- Enjoy!
