Method

1. In a small bowl or directly in a resealable plastic bag, mix together the chopped onion, parsley, white vinegar, mustard, garlic powder, and dried basil.

   

2. Place the beef steak into the marinade, coating it thoroughly. Seal the bag and refrigerate for 6 to 8 hours, or overnight, turning the meat at least once.

   

3. Preheat your oven's broiler. Remove the steak from the marinade, discard the remaining liquid, and place the meat on a broiler pan rack.

   

4. Broil the steak for 15 to 20 minutes, turning once, until it reaches your desired level of doneness. Let it rest for a few minutes, then slice thinly across the grain to serve.
