Gordon Ramsay’s London Broil Recipe Ingredients

• 80ml soy sauce
• 80ml lemon juice
• 120ml olive oil
• 60ml Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tbsp minced garlic
• 2 tbsp Italian seasoning
• 1 tsp black pepper
• ½ tsp salt
• Pinch of red pepper flakes
• 900g London Broil round steak
• Optional: splash of balsamic, flake salt

How To Make Gordon Ramsay’s London Broil

1. Make the marinade: In a large zip-top bag or a shallow dish, combine the soy sauce, lemon juice, olive oil, Worcestershire sauce, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes.
2. Marinate the steak: Place the steak in the marinade and ensure it is fully coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for the best flavor.
3. Prep the broiler: Position an oven rack so that the steak will be about 6 inches from the heating element. Preheat your oven’s broiler to high.
4. Broil the steak: Remove the steak from the marinade, letting any excess drip off. Place it in a broiler-safe baking dish. Broil for 5–6 minutes per side for medium-rare, or adjust the time to your desired level of doneness.
5. Rest and slice: Remove the steak from the oven and transfer it to a cutting board. Let it rest for 5–10 minutes. This is a crucial step. Slice the steak thinly against the grain.
6. Serve: Spoon any of the resting juices from the cutting board over the sliced steak. Garnish with a sprinkle of flake salt if desired and serve immediately.

Recipe Tips

• How do I make sure my London Broil is tender? There are two keys to tender London Broil: marinating and slicing. A long marinating time helps to break down the tough muscle fibers. Slicing the cooked meat thinly against the grain is non-negotiable for a tender bite.
• Why is it important to marinate the steak? London Broil is a leaner, tougher cut of meat. The acidic ingredients in the marinade (like lemon juice and Worcestershire sauce) work to tenderize the meat, while the other ingredients infuse it with a huge amount of flavor.
• How do I know when the steak is done? The most accurate way to check for doneness is with a meat thermometer. For medium-rare, you’re looking for an internal temperature of 130-135°F (54-57°C).
• What does “slice against the grain” mean? Look for the direction the muscle fibers are running in the steak. You want to slice perpendicular to those lines. This shortens the fibers, making the meat much easier to chew and feel more tender.

What To Serve With London Broil

This flavorful steak pairs well with a variety of classic sides:

• Creamy mashed potatoes or roasted potatoes
• Steamed green beans or roasted asparagus
• A simple Caesar salad
• Sautéed mushrooms and onions

How To Store London Broil

Refrigerate: Store leftover sliced steak in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat: Reheat gently in a skillet over low heat or in the microwave. Be careful not to overcook it, as it can become tough. Leftovers are also excellent served cold in salads or sandwiches.
