Baking sheet
Cutting board
Bowl
Whisk
Foil
Paper towels
Meat thermometer optional

Ingredients

500 g flank steak London broil
¼ cup soy sauce
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1 tbsp Dijon mustard
1 tbsp brown sugar
1 tsp garlic powder
½ tsp black pepper
Salt to taste

Instructions

Marinate magic: Whisk together soy sauce, olive oil, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, brown sugar, garlic powder, and black pepper in a bowl. Pat the steak dry with paper towels and submerge it in the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours for deeper flavour.
Broil brilliance: Preheat your oven grill/broiler and position the rack near the top. Remove the steak from the marinade, discarding the marinade. Season generously with salt. Place the steak on a broiler pan or wire rack set over a baking sheet.
Searing success: Broil the steak for 5-7 minutes per side, depending on your desired doneness. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature: 57°C (135°F) for medium-rare, 63°C (145°F) for medium.
Rest and reward: Transfer the steak to a cutting board and loosely tent with foil. Let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing against the grain. This allows the juices to redistribute for maximum flavour and tenderness.

Notes

Tips for a top-notch broil:

Don't overmarinate:: While marinating tenderises the meat, exceeding 4 hours can make it mushy. Stick to the timeframe for optimal results.
Sear it right:: Searing creates a delicious crust and locks in the juices. Don't be afraid of a good char!
Rest is key:: Resist the urge to slice into the steak immediately. Letting it rest is crucial for juicy perfection.

Serving suggestions:

Classic combo:: Pair your broiled London broil with mashed potatoes and roasted vegetables for a hearty and satisfying meal.
Sandwich sensation:: Thinly slice the steak and pile it high on toasted bread with your favourite toppings for a delicious and satisfying sandwich.
Salad superstar:: Add thin slices of London broil to your favourite salad for a protein-packed lunch or light dinner.
