You do not need to have a long experience in the kitchen in order to prepare London broil. The main recipe is very simple and once you get it right you can even start making small experiments with it by adding additional ingredients. Here is how to cook London broil - this is just a basic guide for all those who have never tried making it before as well as for those who have made an attempt, but have failed.

It is essential that you choose the right type of meat. The piece should be rounded and not sharply edged - this will ensure its tenderness even if you are not a master in cooking. The next step is to season the meat. You do not need to do anything special as a mix of salt and pepper will do just fine. Still, you might want to add some more herbs if you want to add extra taste. Use this mix to rub the piece very well on all sides. Then put it in the fridge for five to six hours.

The next step on how to cook London broil is to prepare a nonstick broiler pan and set it to heat to a medium temperature. Then simply place the meat on top. You have to cook the meat for 8 to 10 minutes on each side. Since not all cooking conditions are the same, you can reduce or slightly increase this time. There must be no burnt spots - once you feel that there is too much sizzling, it is best to flip the meat over.

Once the London broil is ready you should cut it and serve it immediately. It is best if you make thin diagonal slices. Make sure you add all the sauce to the dishes.
