Steps:
- Marinate steak and prepare onions:
- Stir together garlic, 3 tablespoons vinegar, 1 1/2 tablespoons oil, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper and pour into a 1-quart sealable plastic bag.
- Add steak to marinade, turning to coat, and marinate, chilled, turning bag occasionally, at least 4 hours.
- Bring to room temperature, then remove steak from marinade and discard marinade.
- Trim root ends of onions slightly, leaving them intact, then halve lengthwise and cut halves lengthwise into 3/4-inch-thick wedges. Insert 1 wooden pick horizontally through each wedge (to keep it intact while grilling). Whisk together remaining tablespoon vinegar and 1 1/2 tablespoons oil and salt and pepper to taste in a bowl and add onions, tossing gently to coat.

- Open vents on bottom of grill. Light a large chimney starter of charcoal (80 to 100 briquettes) and pour lit charcoal onto bottom rack, leaving about one quarter of bottom rack free of charcoal and banking remaining coals across rest of bottom rack so that coals are about 3 times higher on opposite side. Charcoal fire is medium-hot when you can hold your hand 5 inches above thickest layer of coals for 3 to 4 seconds. 3Sear steak on lightly oiled grill rack over thickest layer of coals, uncovered, 1 minute on each side, then move steak to area over fewer coals and grill, uncovered, turning occasionally and moving to coolest area of grill if browning too quickly, until thermometer inserted horizontally 2 inches into meat registers 120°F, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer to a plate and let stand 10 minutes (steak will continue to cook, reaching medium-rare).
- To cook steak using a gas grill:
- Preheat all burners on high, covered, 10 minutes.
- Sear steak on lightly oiled grill rack, uncovered, 1 minute on each side, then reduce heat to moderate. Grill steak, covered, turning occasionally, until thermometer inserted horizontally 2 inches into meat registers 120°F, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer to a plate and let stand 10 minutes (steak will continue to cook, reaching medium-rare).
- To grill onions by either method:
- While steak is standing, grill onions (covered only if using a gas grill) over moderate heat, turning over once, until tender, about 6 minutes.
- Serve onions with steak; cut steak crosswise into thin slices, holding knife at a 45-degree angle.

Tips:
- Choose a flank steak or skirt steak for your London broil. These cuts are relatively inexpensive and have a good amount of marbling, which will help them stay juicy during cooking.
- Make sure to slice the steak against the grain before cooking. This will help tenderize the meat and make it easier to chew.
- Use a flavorful marinade to add depth of flavor to the steak. The balsamic vinegar, olive oil, garlic, and herbs in this recipe create a delicious marinade that will help the steak stay moist and tender.
- Let the steak marinate for at least 30 minutes, but no longer than 24 hours. If you marinate the steak for too long, the acid in the vinegar can start to break down the proteins in the meat, making it tough.
- Cook the steak over medium-high heat until it reaches your desired level of doneness. For a medium-rare steak, cook for about 5 minutes per side. For a medium steak, cook for about 7 minutes per side. For a medium-well steak, cook for about 9 minutes per side.
- Let the steak rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.
Conclusion:
This balsamic marinade is a great way to add flavor and tenderness to your London broil. The marinade is easy to make and can be used on other cuts of steak as well. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious and memorable meal that your family and friends will love.
