how do you cook london broil so that it’s not tough:

To avoid having an overly tough London Broil steak it’s important not to broil it for too long. An average London Broil needs around five minutes per side; however, you can adjust the cooking time as needed.

The most common texture for London broil is medium-rare which is around 125 degrees F. You can use a thermometer to check on the temperature and remove the meat as soon as it’s ready.

If you prefer your steak well done add another three minutes of broiling per side. Alternatively, you can cover the dish, and continue baking it at 300 degrees for around 25 minutes. This will soften the meat a little bit more.

the last few steps:

Once you remove the London broil from the oven make sure to allow it to rest for 10 minutes. This will help the meat finish cooking and absorb the flavors. Lastly, cut the London broil thinly so that it’s easy to eat.

what makes it kosher:

Most London broil recipes have butter, however, if you keep kosher and don’t mix meat with dairy that can be a problem. We decided to make a Kosher London broil recipe using olive oil instead of butter, and it tasted delicious!

Serving suggestions for London broil:

There are so many delicious dishes to serve alongside London broil. Here are some ideas:

• Colorful quinoa salad
• Healthy Baked Vegetables
• Butternut Squash Pie

Leftover options:

If you have leftovers you can add them to a salad. A steak salad is so delicious and can be eaten with warm or cold steak. As pictured above we added the steak to a salad with lettuce, red cabbage, corn, and chickpeas. And topped it off with a creamy tahini dressing.

Another great idea is making a steak sandwich. Add the leftover London broil to your favorite roll or sub, top it with some veggies, and a great sauce.
