I think every mom in the 1950s, 60s, and 70s had some version of this dish, but it taught me how to take a less-expensive, tougher cut of meat and make it delicious, says David Bonom.
Yield: 8 servings (serving size: 3 ounces)
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup chopped shallots
- 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 teaspoons fresh thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 (2-pound) boneless top round steak, trimmed
- Cooking spray
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Preparation
1. Combine first 8 ingredients in a large zip-top plastic bag. Pierce steak with a fork. Add steak to bag; seal. Marinate in refrigerator 2 hours, turning every 30 minutes.
2. Preheat broiler.
3. Remove steak from bag; discard marinade. Scrape shallots and garlic from steak; discard shallots and garlic. Place steak on broiler pan coated with cooking spray. Sprinkle steak evenly with salt and pepper. Broil 4 inches from heat for 6 minutes on each side or until desired degree of doneness. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing against the grain.
