Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds top round steak (London Broil cut)
- 0.5 cup soy sauce
- 0.25 cup olive oil
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
- 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 4 cloves garlic cloves (minced)
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 0.5 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, olive oil, lemon juice, balsamic vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, brown sugar, rosemary, thyme, black pepper, salt, and red pepper flakes if using to make the marinade.
Place the London Broil steak into a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it is fully submerged.
Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 4-8 hours (or overnight for best results). Turn the steak occasionally to ensure even marination.
About 30 minutes before cooking, remove the steak from the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature. Discard the marinade and pat the steak dry with paper towels.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F). Lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
Place the London Broil on the grill and cook for 5-7 minutes per side for medium-rare doneness. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature; it should read 130°F for medium-rare and 140°F for medium.
Remove the steak from the grill and transfer to a cutting board. Tent the steak with aluminum foil and let it rest for 5-10 minutes to retain juices.
Slice the steak thinly against the grain to ensure tenderness. Serve immediately and enjoy!
