London Broil and Marinade

South Beach Diet Recipe : Marinated London Broil

Ingredients

1 1/2 pounds top round or eye round London broil

For the Marinade:

2 tablespoons Olive Oil
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1/2 cup dry red wine
3 garlic cloves, minced
3 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano, or 1 tsp. dried
1 bay leaf
1/2 tsp. freshly ground black pepper (optional)

Preparation Method

In a small mixing bowl whisk together all the ingredients except the meat. Place the steak in a deep bowl; pour on the marinade, and turn once to coat both sides. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1/2 hour, preferably overnight.

Preheat the broiler or prepare a charcoal grill. Broil or grill the meat for about 5 minutes on each side, or until done to taste.

Cut meat into thin diagonal slices across the grain. Serve warm or cold.
