London Broil Recipe
Juicy London broil marinated in soy sauce, balsamic, garlic, and herbs, then broiled to medium rare. Ready in under 30 minutes after marinating!
Servings: 4 servings
Equipment
Ingredients
- ¼ cup olive oil
- ¼ cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 3 garlic cloves minced
- 2 teaspoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon dried rosemary
- 2 pounds top round steak
Instructions
- In a shallow bowl, whisk together all the ingredients except for the steak. Add the steak on top and turn to coat a few times. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight, turning occasionally.
- Place the oven rack in the top position, closest to the broiler. Preheat the broiler. Remove the dish from the fridge and let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
- Line a sheet pan with foil. Remove the meat from the bowl and allow any extra marinade to drip off, then place it on top of the pan. Broil for 7 minutes, flip, then continue to broil for 5–8 more minutes, depending on the thickness of the steak, or until the internal temperature reaches 130°F for medium-rare or 140°F for medium.
- Transfer to a cutting board and let rest for 10 minutes. Slice thinly against the grain and serve.
Notes
- My Top Tip: Slice against the grain for tender steak. Identify the direction of the muscle fibers and slice against them to break them up. If you cut with the grain, it keeps the muscle fibers intact, which can make the meat chewy and tough.
- Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat on the stovetop over medium heat until warmed through. Cover the skillet to keep the steak moist, or keep it uncovered for a crispier steak.
- Freezing: Wrap the steak tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil, then place it in an airtight zip-top bag. Remove as much air as possible to prevent freezer burn. The steak will last in the freezer for up to 3 months. Thaw in the fridge overnight and reheat on the stovetop over medium until warmed through.
