Steps:
- Prick the London broil on both sides several times with a fork; place into a resealable plastic bag. Whisk together the lemon zest, lemon juice, olive oil, sugar, green onions, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper in a bowl. Pour into the bag with the meat, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal. Marinate in the refrigerator at least 3 to 4 hours, but overnight is best.
- Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
- Remove the beef from the marinade, and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade.
- Cook the beef until it is beginning to firm, and is hot and slightly pink in the center, about 17 to 20 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C). Cover the meat with two layers of aluminum foil, and allow to rest in a warm area for 10 minutes before slicing thinly across the grain.

MARINATED LONDON BROIL
Steps:
- Mix shallots, soy sauce, olive oil, thyme, hot sauce and lemon juice together in a non-reactive broiling pan. Score the steak, place it in the pan and turn in the marinade. Marinate for at least 2 hours at room temperature or up to 24 hours refrigerated. If refrigerated, turn the steak in the marinade occasionally. Drain off marinade and put into a saucepan. Place steak under broiler at 1 inch from the heat for 3 to 4 minutes on each side for rare, for 4 to 5 minutes on each side for medium. Leave the broiler door slightly ajar, so the heat stays on and air circulates. Meanwhile bring marinade to the boil. Remove from heat. Carve the meat in thin diagonal slices across the grain. Arrange the slices on a warm platter. Pour the carving juices and the marinade over the meat. Decorate with cress.
HERB-MARINATED LONDON BROIL WITH GARLICKY GREENS
This genius of this one-skillet wonder is the easy, herb-infused oil that works overtime as marinade, dressing and sauce. After quickly searing the steak, we flip the script with a reverse marinade, allowing the cooked meat to luxuriate in all that herby goodness while it rests. The result is a gorgeously green coating and tons of fresh flavor in every bite.

Steps:
- Pat the London broil dry with paper towels and set on a plate. Rub both sides of the meat with the vegetable oil, then season both sides generously with salt and black pepper, coating the surface evenly. Set aside to rest at room temperature for at least 30 minutes or up to 1 hour. (The seasoned meat can also be transferred to a large resealable plastic bag and stored in the refrigerator overnight. Let rest at room temperature for 20 minutes before cooking.)
- While the meat rests, add the parsley, rosemary, thyme, garlic, scallions, lemon zest and juice, fennel seeds, red pepper flakes, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper to a food processor. Pulse, stopping to scrape the sides as needed, until the herbs are finely chopped, about 10 times. Transfer the herb mixture to a small bowl and whisk in the olive oil. Set aside.
- Set a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over high heat until just starting to smoke, about 3 minutes. Add the steak and cook until seared on the bottom, about 3 minutes. Flip the steak and continue cooking until an instant-read thermometer inserted sideways into the center of the steak registers between 120 and 125 degrees F, about 3 minutes more. Transfer the steak to a clean plate and spoon 1/2 cup of the herb oil over top. Set aside to marinate for 5 minutes.
- While the steak marinates, heat the broccoli rabe to the same cast-iron skillet over high heat. Cook, using tongs to toss the broccoli rabe, until it's vibrantly green and starting to soften, about 2 minutes. Add the kale and continue cooking and tossing until the kale is wilted and the broccoli rabe is crisp-tender, about 2 minutes more. Add 1/4 cup of the herb oil and toss to combine. Remove the skillet from the heat.
- Thinly slice the rested steak against the grain. Transfer the steak to the skillet on top of the greens and spoon the remaining 1/4 cup of herb oil over the steak. Serve with lemon wedges.

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of meat: Look for a flank steak or top blade steak that is at least 1 inch thick. This will ensure that the meat is tender and juicy after cooking.
- Marinate the meat for at least 4 hours, or overnight: This will help to tenderize the meat and infuse it with flavor. You can use a variety of marinades, but a simple lemon-herb marinade is always a good choice.
- Cook the meat over high heat: This will help to sear the outside of the meat and keep it juicy on the inside. Cook the meat for 5-7 minutes per side, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare.
- Let the meat rest before slicing: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful. Let the meat rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing against the grain.
- Serve with your favorite sides: London broil is a versatile dish that can be served with a variety of sides. Some popular choices include roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a simple salad.
