This grilled marinated London broil is a perfect choice for a flavorful and satisfying meal. The steak is marinated to enhance its tenderness and flavor, then grilled to your preferred level of doneness, making it a delicious and versatile dish for any occasion.
Prepare the Marinade
In a bowl, combine soy sauce, olive oil, minced garlic, and lemon juice. Mix these ingredients thoroughly until well combined. This marinade not only infuses the steak with rich flavors but also helps to tenderize the meat, ensuring a juicy and flavorful result.
Marinate the Steak
Place the London broil in a large resealable bag or shallow dish. Pour the prepared marinade over the steak, making sure it is evenly coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. Allowing the steak to marinate for an extended period enhances the flavor and ensures the meat absorbs the marinade thoroughly.
Preheat the Grill
Heat your grill to high, around 450-500°F (232-260°C). Ensure that the grates are clean and lightly oiled to prevent the steak from sticking. Preheating the grill to a high temperature ensures a good sear on the steak, which locks in the juices and enhances the flavor.
Grill the Steak
Remove the steak from the marinade and let any excess drip off. Place the steak on the hot grill and cook for 5-7 minutes per side for medium-rare. Adjust the cooking time according to your preferred level of doneness. Grilling the steak to the right temperature ensures a perfect texture and flavor.
Rest and Serve
After grilling, transfer the steak to a cutting board and let it rest for 10 minutes. This resting period allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful. Slice the steak thinly against the grain and serve immediately for the best results.
