Categories     main-dish

Time 5h12m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 beef bouillon cube
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 top round London broil steak (about 2 pounds)
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1 1/2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chervil or tarragon
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Prepare the steak: Dissolve the bouillon cube in 3/4 cup hot water in a bowl; set aside to cool. Whisk in 2 tablespoons olive oil, the soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Place the steak in a large resealable plastic bag, pour in the marinade and seal, squeezing out the air. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or up to 1 day.
  • Prepare the herb butter: Mix the butter with the chives, parsley, chervil, a pinch of salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper and the lemon juice in a bowl.
  • About 30 minutes before cooking, remove the meat from the bag (discard the marinade), dry it well and bring to room temperature. Heat a large heavy skillet over high heat, about 2 minutes. Rub the steak with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon salt over the surface of the pan; add the meat and set a heavy skillet on top to weigh it down. Sear for about 7 minutes; turn the steak, replace the weight and cook until a thermometer inserted into the side reads 110 degrees for medium-rare, about 5 minutes.
  • Transfer the steak to a cutting board; brush with some of the herb butter, tent with foil and let rest for about 10 minutes. Thinly slice against the grain; top with more herb butter and drizzle with the pan juices.

LONDON BROIL

Although the marinade helps tenderize this large cut of meat, you should also make sure to slice it very thinly against the grain on a slight bias. We found that a serrated knife works best.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Beef Recipes

Time 9h30m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup cola
1/4 cup red-wine vinegar
1/2 small white onion, grated
1 1/2 tablespoons garlic, chopped (from 3 garlic cloves)
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup safflower oil, plus more for grill
1 London broil (5 to 6 pounds; 2 1/2 inches thick)

Steps:

  • Combine cola, vinegar, onion, garlic, 1 teaspoon pepper, and the oil in a bowl. Place steak in a large resealable plastic bag, and pour marinade over steak. Seal bag, pressing out excess air. Refrigerate at least 8 hours.
  • Let steak (in bag) stand at room temperature 1 hour. Remove steak from marinade, and discard marinade. Brush off any remaining onion and garlic from steak to prevent burning, and season with 1 tablespoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper.
  • Meanwhile, preheat grill to medium-high, and brush grates with oil. Grill steak until internal temperature reaches 115 degrees for medium-rare (residual heat will continue to cook meat), 10 to 11 minutes per side. Transfer steak to a cutting board, and let rest, tented with foil, at least 15 minutes and up to 1 hour. Very thinly slice steak against the grain, and serve warm or at room temperature.

Tips:

  • Choose a flank steak or top blade steak for your London broil.
  • Marinating the steak for at least 30 minutes (or up to overnight) in a mixture of olive oil, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, garlic, and herbs will help tenderize it and infuse it with flavor.
  • Cook the steak over high heat for a short amount of time (3-4 minutes per side) to achieve a medium-rare doneness. This will help keep the steak juicy and tender.
  • Let the steak rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing against the grain to allow the juices to redistribute.
