Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 2 pounds London Broil Look for a piece with a bright red color and minimal fat.
- 1/4 cup Olive Oil Helps to tenderize the meat and adds flavor.
- 4 cloves Garlic, minced Adds robust aroma and depth of flavor.
- 1/3 cup Soy Sauce Contributes savory, umami-rich flavor.
- 2 tablespoons Honey Balances the savory elements with sweetness.
- 1 teaspoon Dried Thyme Adds earthy notes that pair well with beef.
- 1 teaspoon Black Pepper Adds subtle heat and depth.
- 1 teaspoon Salt Helps draw moisture into the meat.
- Fresh Parsley For garnish.
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine the olive oil, soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, dried thyme, black pepper, and salt. Whisk until well combined.
- Place the London Broil in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow glass dish. Pour the marinade over the meat, ensuring it is fully coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish tightly, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or ideally overnight.
- Preheat your grill or broiler to high heat. Remove the London Broil from the marinade, allowing excess to drip off. Discard the leftover marinade.
- Place the marinated London Broil on the hot grill or under the broiler. Cook for about 6 to 8 minutes per side for medium-rare, checking with a meat thermometer.
- Once cooked, remove the London Broil from the heat and let it rest for 10 minutes to allow juices to redistribute.
- Slice the meat against the grain into thin strips and arrange on a serving platter. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
- Serve immediately while warm, alongside your favorite sides.
Notes
For variations, consider adding citrus juice, different herbs, or spices to the marinade. Serve with roasted vegetables or in sandwiches.
