London Broil (Extra Tender)
Description
London Broil (Extra Tender) starts with a beef flank or top round steak marinated in a mixture of olive oil, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. The marinade not only imparts flavor but also helps to tenderize the meat. After marinating for at least two hours, the steak is broiled at a high temperature, about 450°-500°F, to sear and cook it to an internal temperature of 135°-140°F, indicating medium-rare doneness. The quick broiling keeps the exterior well seared while preserving juiciness inside.
After cooking, the steak rests for 5 to 10 minutes, allowing juices to redistribute. It is then sliced thinly against the grain to maximize tenderness. This preparation results in a flavorful, succulent steak that can be served on its own or alongside vegetables. The marinade's combination of savory and acidic elements balances the rich beef flavor.
Ingredients
- 2 lbs London broil top round or flank steak
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 4 garlic minced, cloves
- 1 tbsp Italian seasoning
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper ground
Instructions
- Combine the olive oil, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, mustard, garlic, and seasonings in a bowl. Whisk to combine.
- Place the London broil steak in a large ziploc bag. Pour the marinade into the ziploc bag. Cover all sides of the steak with the marinade. Seal and place in the fridge for at least 2 hours.
- Preheat the oven to the broil setting (about 450°-500°F). Remove the steak from the ziploc bag and place it on a sheet pan. Broil for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reads 135°-140°F when using a thermometer.
- Let the steak rest for about 5-10 minutes before slicing it against the grain and serving.
