Time 1h5m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 beef bouillon cube
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
kosher salt & freshly ground black pepper
1 (2 lb) top round london broil steak
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1 1/2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chervil or 1 tablespoon fresh tarragon
kosher salt & freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Prepare the steak: Dissolve the bouillon cube in 3/4 cup hot water in a bowl; set aside to cool. Whisk in 2 T. olive oil, the soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, 1 t. salt and 1/2 t. pepper. Place the steak in a large resealable plastic bag, pour in the marinade and seal, squeezing out the air. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or up to 1 day.
  • Prepare the herb butter: Mix the butter with the chives, parsley, chervil, a pinch of salt, 1/2 t. pepper and the lemon juice in a bowl.
  • About 30 minutes before cooking, remove the meat from the bag (discard the marinade), dry it well and bring to room temperature. Heat a large heavy skillet over high heat, about 2 minutes. Rub the steak with the remaining 1 T. olive oil. Sprinkle 1 T. salt over the surface of the pan; add the meat and set a heavy skillet on top to weigh it down. Sear for about 7 minutes; turn the steak, replace the weight and cook until a thermometer inserted into the side reads 110 degrees for medium-rare, about 5 minutes.
  • Transfer the steak to a cutting board; brush with some of the herb butter, tent with foil and let rest for about 10 minutes. Thinly slice against the grain; top with more herb butter and drizzle with the pan juices.
