1

In small bowl, beat Gochujang Mayonnaise ingredients with whisk; set aside.
2

In 10-inch nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add steak; cook 4 to 6 minutes or until deep brown on first side. Turn steak; reduce heat to medium, and cook 4 to 6 minutes or until cooked to desired temperature (145°F for medium-rare). Transfer to cutting board; let stand 5 minutes, then thinly slice. Cover with foil to keep warm.
3

Add 1 tablespoon of the butter to drippings in skillet over medium heat. Add kimchi; cook 3 to 5 minutes or until browned on edges. Transfer to small bowl; cover with foil to keep warm.
4

Add remaining tablespoon butter to skillet; add eggs. Cook 15 to 30 seconds or until edges are set; pour soy sauce over eggs, and cover pan. Reduce heat to low; cook 1 to 3 minutes or until yolks are set and no longer runny.
5

Divide rice among 4 bowls. Divide vegetables evenly over rice. Top each bowl with one-fourth of the steak and 1 egg. Divide kimchi mixture evenly among bowls. Drizzle with gochujang mayonnaise.

Expert Tips

Rib eye can be finicky to prepare. Here’s a tip: To achieve a more even cook on your protein, opt for a thicker steak, around 1 inch thick.
To make your bibimbap bowl extra fancy, julienne the radishes and cucumber to match the shredded carrot and cabbage.

More About This Recipe

New to bibimbap? This rice-based dish originates from Korea, and its definition is right there in the name: “Bibim” means mixing ingredients together, and “bap” means rice. Bibimbap starts with warm rice, then is tossed in sautéed vegetables, kimchi or gochujang and soy sauce. A protein such as beef or a fried egg usually tops this bowl, and everything gets stirred together right before serving.
Bibimbap is often served in a hot bowl, then the toppings are stirred against the bowl to cook them slightly. We took this idea and cooked all our ingredients in one skillet instead.
