Ingredients

• 0.5 cup Soy sauce
• 0.25 cup Mirin (Japanese sweet rice wine)
• 0.25 cup Sake
• 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon Ginger, grated
• 2 Green onions, thinly sliced
• 1 London Broil steak (approximately 1.5 lbs)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the soy sauce, mirin, sake, brown sugar, and sesame oil. Mix well to dissolve the brown sugar.

Step 2

Stir in the minced garlic, grated ginger, and sliced green onions to incorporate thoroughly into the marinade.

Step 3

Place the London Broil steak in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it is fully coated.

Step 4

Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap. Refrigerate and marinate the steak for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, to maximize flavor.

Step 5

When ready to cook, preheat your grill or broiler to medium-high heat.

Step 6

Remove the steak from the marinade and pat it dry with paper towels. Reserve the marinade for optional basting by boiling it in a small saucepan for 5 minutes to ensure it is safe to use.

Step 7

Grill or broil the steak for 6-8 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches your desired doneness (e.g., 130°F for medium-rare).

Step 8

Allow the steak to rest for 10 minutes before slicing it thinly against the grain.

Step 9

Serve the sliced steak with a drizzle of the cooked marinade, if desired, and enjoy!
