Notes

If you can’t find gochujang, mix chili paste with honey or brown sugar. For a healthier option, consider using grilled chicken or veggies like portobello mushrooms. Leftovers can be stored separately in airtight containers for up to 3 days. Reheat the steak before assembling fresh tacos. Customize your toppings with pickled vegetables or hot sauce for extra flavor. For best results, marinate the steak overnight for maximum flavor infusion.
