In a medium bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar, olive oil, soy sauce, minced garlic, Dijon mustard, honey, dried rosemary, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Place the London Broil into a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the meat, ensuring it is fully coated.
Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to fully penetrate the meat.
When ready to cook, preheat your oven to broil and place an oven rack about 4-6 inches from the heating element.
Heat a large oven-safe skillet (preferably cast iron) over medium-high heat. Remove the London Broil from the marinade and pat it dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. Reserve the marinade for later use.
Sear the London Broil in the hot skillet for about 2-3 minutes per side to develop a crust.
Transfer the skillet with the seared meat to the preheated oven. Broil for about 4-6 minutes per side, depending on your desired level of doneness (130°F for medium-rare, 140°F for medium). Use a meat thermometer to ensure accuracy.
While the steak is broiling, pour the reserved marinade into a small saucepan. Bring it to a boil over medium-high heat and let it simmer for 5 minutes to thicken and use as a sauce.
Remove the London Broil from the oven and let it rest on a cutting board for 10 minutes to retain its juices.
Slice the meat thinly against the grain and drizzle with the reduced marinade sauce. Serve immediately and enjoy.
