In a bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar, olive oil, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, honey, minced garlic, dried rosemary (if using), black pepper, and salt.
Place the London broil steak in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it's evenly coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight for maximum flavor.
Remove the steak from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking to bring it to room temperature.
Heat a large cast-iron skillet or grill pan over high heat. Add the vegetable oil and heat until shimmering.
Remove the steak from the marinade, allowing excess to drip off, and carefully place it in the hot pan. Reserve the marinade for later use.
Sear the steak for 5-6 minutes on one side without moving it, creating a flavorful crust. Flip the steak and cook for another 5-6 minutes for medium-rare, or to your desired doneness.
While the steak is cooking, pour the reserved marinade into a small saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. This will be served as a sauce.
Once the steak is cooked to your liking, remove it from the pan and allow it to rest on a cutting board for 10 minutes. This helps the juices redistribute, keeping the steak tender.
Slice the steak thinly against the grain to ensure tenderness and drizzle with the reduced balsamic sauce for a bold flavor kick.
Serve immediately with your choice of sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh green salad.
