I had leftover marinade so I am going to save it to eat with the remaining rice and kimchi. Alternatively, you could slice beef eye round, skewer them and use this marinade on them for 2-4 hours before grilling. I also added another Tablespoon of Sriracha to both the dressing and the marinade, because I like it spicier.
