Ingredients

1 1/2 pounds Top-round London broil, about 1 ¼" thick

Sliced vine-ripened tomatoes for accompaniment

5 lrg Garlic cloves

1 teaspoon Salt

1/4 cup Dry red wine

1/4 cup Balsamic vinegar

1 tablespoon Soy sauce

1 teaspoon Honey

Preparation

Make marinade: Mince and mash garlic to a paste with salt and in a blender blend with remaining marinade ingredients.

In a heavy-duty sealable plastic bag combine London broil with marinade. Seal bag, pressing out excess air, and put in a shallow baking dish. Marinate steak, chilled, turning occasionally, at least 4 hours and up to 24. Prepare grill.

Bring steak to room temperature (which should take about 1 hour) before grilling. Remove steak from marinade, letting excess drip off, and grill on an oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals 7 to 9 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Transfer steak to a cutting board and let stand 10 minutes.

Holding a knife at a 45 degree angle, cut steak across grain into thin slices and serve with tomatoes.

This recipe yields 6 servings.
