Ingredients

Scale

Steak and Marinade

  • 2 pounds London broil round steak (12 inches thick)
  • 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 black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Prepare the marinade: In a large gallon-sized resealable 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 black pepper, and ½ teaspoon salt. Mix well to blend all ingredients evenly.
  2. Marinate the steak: Add the 2 pounds of London broil round steak into the bag with the marinade. Seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 3 hours or overnight to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat deeply.
  3. Preheat the broiler: When ready to cook, preheat your oven’s broiler to HIGH heat setting to ensure a quick, intense cooking environment that will sear the steak beautifully.
  4. Remove and prepare steak for broiling: Take the steak out of the marinade and place it in a baking dish suitable for broiling. Discard the leftover marinade to prevent any cross-contamination.
  5. Broil the steak: Position the baking dish under the preheated broiler and cook the steak for 5-6 minutes on one side. Flip the steak over carefully and broil for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 135°F for medium-rare doneness.
  6. Rest and serve: Remove the steak from the oven and allow it to rest for 10 minutes. This resting period helps redistribute the juices for maximum tenderness. After resting, slice the steak thinly against the grain and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Marinating overnight will provide deeper flavor and more tender meat.
  • Use a meat thermometer to check internal doneness for best results.
  • Letting the steak rest after broiling is essential to retain juices.
  • Slicing against the grain ensures tenderness in every bite.
  • Adjust the broiling time slightly depending on your oven’s broiler intensity and steak thickness.
