📝 Preparation Steps
1
London Broil
2
Pound steak with a meat mallet or side of a can to tenderize.
3
Whisk marinade ingredients together in a freezer size Ziploc bag. Reserve 2 tablespoons to use later. Add steak, press out excess air and seal. Massage marinade into the steak with your hands through the outside of the bag.
4
Marinate in the refrigerator at least ⏱️ 4 hours or up to ⏱️ 12 hours (the longer the better). Meanwhile make the herb butter (instructions to follow).
5
When ready to cook, remove the steak from the marinade and place it in a foil lined baking dish and let rest at least ⏱️ 20 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat broiler to high heat (550 degrees F) for ⏱️ 10 minutes.
6
Broil steak 6 inches away from the broiler for ⏱️ 5-7 minutes per side (up to ⏱️ 8 minutes for extra thick steak), or until an internal thermometer reads 130-135 degrees F for medium rare or 140-145 degrees for medium. Broiling times WILL VARY depending on thickness of your steak so use a meat thermometer to check for doneness. NOTE: Know where your broiler is! Almost all oven broilers are located at the top of the oven; however, some ovens have a separate broiler drawer located underneath the central oven cavity.
7
Remove the steak to a cutting board and let rest for ⏱️ 10 minutes before slicing. Slice steak into strips across the grain (perpendicular to the long strands). Drizzle with the 2 tablespoons reserved marinade and serve with herb butter.
8
Herb Butter
9
Meanwhile, make Herb Butter by mashing all of the Herb Butter ingredients together in a medium bowl until blended. Transfer to a piece of plastic wrap and form into a log as your roll up the plastic wrap. Twist the ends of wrap to secure and place the butter in the refrigerator until firm (about ⏱️ 1 hour) or ready to use.
