Kimchi Beef Fried Rice
I love to make this Kimchi Beef Fried Rice when I want something quick but packed with flavor! It's spicy and savory from the kimchi and has those amazing charred bits of beef throughout the fried rice. It tastes like the fried rice they give you at the end of Korean BBQ, which is my favorite part!!Watch me make Kimchi Beef Fried Rice
