Tips & Substitutions
For best results, let the London broil marinate for at least 12 hours to enhance flavor. If you prefer a gluten-free option, substitute soy sauce with tamari. Fresh ginger can be replaced with ground ginger, using about 1/4 teaspoon. Consider adding a splash of Worcestershire sauce for extra depth. Always slice against the grain for a tender result.
Serving Suggestions
Serve the London broil sliced thinly, garnished with sliced green onions. This dish pairs beautifully with a side of roasted vegetables or a refreshing salad, such as a cucumber salad, for a balanced meal. For a complete experience, consider enjoying it alongside Aunt Retta'S Quick And Easy Apple Pie for dessert.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, slice the meat and warm it gently in a skillet over low heat to prevent it from drying out. Alternatively, you can microwave it briefly, covering with a damp paper towel to retain moisture.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use a different cut of meat instead of London broil?
Yes, you can use flank steak or sirloin as substitutes. Both cuts are flavorful and can be marinated similarly. Just keep in mind that cooking times may vary slightly due to differences in thickness and tenderness.
How long should I cook the London broil?
Grill the London broil for about 6-8 minutes per side for medium-rare, depending on thickness. Always use a meat thermometer to check for an internal temperature of 130-135°F for medium-rare. Adjust cooking time for your desired doneness.
Can I freeze the marinated London broil?
Absolutely! Freezing the marinated meat is a great way to preserve it. Place the marinated London broil in a freezer-safe bag, removing as much air as possible. It can be frozen for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator before cooking.
