Ingredients

Scale

Marinade Ingredients

  • ⅓ cup soy sauce
  • ⅓ cup lemon juice
  • ½ cup olive oil
  • ¼ cup Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 2 tablespoons Italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon pepper
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Meat

  • 2 pounds London broil round steak (12 inches thick)

Instructions

  1. Mix the Marinade: In a large gallon-sized bag, combine ⅓ cup soy sauce, ⅓ cup lemon juice, ½ cup olive oil, ¼ cup Worcestershire sauce, 1 tablespoon minced garlic, 2 tablespoons Italian seasoning, 1 teaspoon pepper, and ½ teaspoon salt. Ensure all ingredients are well mixed to form a flavorful marinade.
  2. Marinate the Steak: Add the 2 pounds London broil round steak to the bag containing the marinade. Seal the bag tightly and refrigerate it. Allow the steak to marinate for at least 3 hours, though for deeper flavor and tenderness, marinating overnight is recommended.
  3. Preheat the Broiler: Remove the steak from the refrigerator about 15 minutes before cooking to bring it closer to room temperature. Preheat your oven’s broiler to HIGH to ensure it reaches the proper intense heat needed for broiling.
  4. Prepare the Steak for Broiling: Take the steak out of the marinade and place it on a baking dish. Discard the leftover marinade to avoid contamination and maintain food safety.
  5. Broil the Steak: Position the baking dish under the broiler. Broil the steak for 5-6 minutes on one side, then flip it carefully. Continue broiling the other side for another 3-4 minutes. Use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature reaches 135°F for medium-rare tenderness.
  6. Rest and Serve: Remove the steak from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes. This resting period allows the juices to redistribute within the meat, resulting in a juicier and more flavorful steak. Slice the steak against the grain and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Marinating overnight enhances the flavor and tenderness.
  • Use a meat thermometer to avoid overcooking and maintain desired doneness.
  • Broiling times may vary depending on the broiler’s intensity and steak thickness.
  • Allowing the steak to rest before slicing is critical to juicy results.
  • Slice against the grain for maximum tenderness.
