Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 2-pound London Broil Beef Steak
- ½ cup olive oil
- ¼ cup soy sauce
- ¼ cup balsamic vinegar
- 1 lemon, juiced
- 2 tablespoons Worchestershire sauce
- 1 ½ tablespoons dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon Montreal steak seasoning
- 1 clove minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 lemon quartered
- 1 small red onion, quartered
Instructions
- To a mixing bowl, add olive oil, soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, lemon juice, Worchestershire sauce, dijon mustard, Montreal steak seasoning, garlic, thyme, salt, and pepper. Whisk together. Add the beef steak to a gallon-size ziplock plastic bag and pour marinade over. Seal and place in the fridge to marinate for 2 hours or overnight.
- Take London Broil out of the marinade and let rest on the counter for 30 minutes. Heat oven broiler to 500 degrees. Take the beef out of the marinade and pat dry with paper towels. Discard the marinade. Place meat in a cast-iron skillet or broiler pan. Broil for 12 minutes, flip and broil for another 8 to 10 minutes.
- Remove meat from pan, place on a cutting board, and rest for 10 minutes. Slice beef against the grain. Season with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of salt and fresh cracked pepper. Serve with roasted red onions and a drizzle of lemon juice from seared lemons.

Notes
Recipe Variations:
- Make it smoky: Add a teaspoon of smoked paprika or chipotle powder to the marinade for extra depth.
- Swap the protein: This marinade works beautifully with flank steak, skirt steak, or even chicken.
- Add a touch of sweetness: A tablespoon of honey or brown sugar balances out the acidity in the marinade.
