For a richer flavor, use dark sesame oil. Marinating overnight is highly recommended for optimal flavor penetration. Be careful not to burn the sesame seeds; they should be golden brown, not black. Serve with a side of grilled vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete meal.

Follow The Directions
01
Step
1 mins
Toast Sesame Seeds: In a small skillet, heat sesame oil over medium-high heat. Add sesame seeds and cook, stirring constantly, until golden brown and fragrant (approximately 1 minute). Immediately transfer the mixture to a large glass or ceramic baking dish to prevent further cooking.
02
Step
2 mins
Prepare Marinade: Stir in the sliced onions, soy sauce, lemon juice, sugar, crushed garlic, and cracked black peppercorns into the sesame oil and seeds. Ensure all ingredients are well combined to create a homogenous marinade.
03
Step
4 hrs
Marinate Steak: Place the London broil steak into the marinade, turning to coat all sides thoroughly. Cover the baking dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, turning the steak occasionally to ensure even marination.
04
Step
5 mins
Preheat Grill: Preheat an outdoor grill to medium-high heat (about 375-450°F or 190-230°C). Lightly oil the grill grate to prevent sticking.
05
Step
20 mins
Grill Steak: Remove the steak from the marinade, allowing excess to drip off. Discard the used marinade. Place the steak on the preheated grill and cook for approximately 10 minutes per side, or until the meat starts to firm and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center registers 130°F (54°C) for medium-rare. Adjust cooking time based on desired doneness.
06
Step
10 mins
Rest and Slice: Transfer the grilled steak to a clean plate, tent loosely with aluminum foil, and let rest for 10 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak. Slice the steak thinly across the grain and serve immediately.
