- Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight, turning occasionally.
- Remove the steak from the marinade and grill 2 inches from medium coals until medium rare.

- Slice the cooked meat across the grain into thin slices.
- Top the sliced meat with the cooked onions and serve.
Tips & Substitutions
For the best flavor, marinate the steak overnight to allow the spices to penetrate. You can substitute red wine vinegar for wine vinegar for a deeper flavor. If you prefer less sweetness, reduce the brown sugar to 2 tablespoons. When grilling, use a meat thermometer to check for doneness; medium rare is typically at 135°F.
Serving Suggestions
Serve the London Broil sliced against the grain and topped with the tender onions. This dish pairs beautifully with a side of roasted vegetables or a fresh salad. For a complete meal, consider serving it alongside California Rice Dish for a hearty addition.
Storage & Reheating
Store leftover London Broil in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, gently warm the slices in a skillet over low heat or microwave in short bursts to avoid drying out the meat. Serve with fresh onions to revive flavors.
