London Broil: The Ultimate Weeknight Steak

• 1.5 pounds flank steak
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme

Steps

1. 1 In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, olive oil, garlic, black pepper, and thyme.
2. 2 Place the flank steak in a zip-top bag and pour the marinade over it. Seal and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
3. 3 Preheat a grill or skillet to high heat.
4. 4 Remove steak from the bag, letting excess marinade drip off. Grill or sear for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness. Internal temperature should reach 135°F for medium-rare.
5. 5 Transfer steak to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing thinly against the grain.
