Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Prepare the Marinade: Prick the London broil on both sides with a fork and place in a resealable plastic bag. In a bowl, whisk together the lemon zest, lemon juice, olive oil, sugar, green onions, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper. (5 minutes)

02

Step
4 hrs

Marinate the Beef: Pour the marinade into the bag with the meat, ensuring it's well-coated. Squeeze out excess air and seal the bag. Refrigerate for at least 3-4 hours, or ideally overnight, for maximum flavor infusion. (3-4 hours / Overnight)

03

Step
5 mins

Preheat the Grill: Preheat an outdoor grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate to prevent sticking. (5 minutes)

04

Step
37 mins

Grill the London Broil: Remove the beef from the marinade, shaking off any excess. Discard the remaining marinade. Grill the beef until it begins to firm and is hot and slightly pink in the center, about 17-20 minutes per side. Use an instant-read thermometer to check for a reading of 140°F (60°C) in the center. (34-40 minutes)

05

Step
10 mins

Rest and Slice: Cover the cooked London broil with two layers of aluminum foil and let it rest in a warm area for 10 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak. Slice thinly across the grain before serving. (10 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a clove of minced garlic or a pinch of red pepper flakes to the marinade.
Resting the meat is crucial for tenderness. Don't skip this step!
Slicing against the grain is essential for ensuring a tender bite. Look closely at the meat's fibers before slicing.
Serve with grilled vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete and satisfying meal.
