Spicy London Broil

This dry rub has bold, spicy flavors – not overbearing, but not for the faint-

hearted. If you prefer milder flavors, cut back on the cayenne just a bit.

Makes 4 to 6 servings

cooking spray

11⁄2 teaspoons ground cumin

11⁄2 teaspoons sugar

11⁄2 teaspoons kosher salt

11⁄4 teaspoons thyme

1teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 1⁄4-1⁄2teaspoon cayenne

11⁄2 pounds top round London broil, about 11⁄4 inches thick

In a small bowl, combine the cumin, sugar, salt, thyme pepper and cayenne and blend. Rub the spice mixture evenly on the meat. Place on a non-metallic plate, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until 20 minutes before cooking. The spice rub may be put on the meat up to 24 hours before cooking. The longer it is on the meat, the more intense the flavor will be.

Place the rack in position B and preheat toaster oven on broil setting, keeping door ajar. Put 1⁄4 cup of water in the bottom of the broiler pan; place the drip tray in the broiling pan so that the meat will be about 1 inch from the upper element. Lightly coat the rack with cooking spray. Arrange the meat on the broiler rack. Broil with the door ajar for 16 to 20 minutes; turn the London broil halfway through cooking time, until meat is done to desired taste*. Let stand for 10 minutes before carving to allow the juices to set; the meat will continue to cook during this time. Test for appropriate doneness with an instant-read thermometer. After the meat has rested, slice across the grain in very thin slices to serve.

*Times will be dependent on temperature and thickness of meat. Test with an instant-read thermometer.

Serve with rice and steamed fresh vegetables.

Makes 4 servings

1⁄2cup soy sauce (can use low sodium)

1⁄4cup rice wine vinegar

3tablespoons dry sherry or mirin

11⁄2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh ginger

3tablespoons brown sugar

4boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (about 6 to 8 ounces each)

In a 1-quart nonreactive saucepan, combine the soy, rice wine vinegar, sherry, ginger, and brown sugar. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Strain, discard the solids, and let cool completely.

Rinse the chicken and pat dry. Place the chicken between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound to an even thickness of 1⁄2 inch with a flat mallet. Put the flattened chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag and pour half the teriyaki marinade over them. Press the air out and let marinate for

15 minutes at room temperature. Reserve and refrigerate the remaining marinade in a glass storage jar (it will keep refrigerated for up to 2 weeks).

Place the rack in position C and preheat toaster oven on broil setting, keeping door ajar. Place the drip tray in the broiling pan so that the flat- tened chicken breast halves will be about 1 inch from the upper element. Add 1⁄4 cup of water to the broiling pan and arrange the chicken “skin” side down on the drip tray. Broil with the door ajar, about 6 to 8 minutes. Turn
