When slicing flank steak, it is important to cut against the grain. This means cutting perpendicular to the direction of the muscle fibers. This technique helps to make the meat more tender and easier to chew. To properly cut against the grain, identify the direction of the muscle fibers and slice the steak in the opposite direction.

How long do you cook a frozen London broil in a oven?

"London broil" can refer to several cuts of meat, some are tougher than others. I always use flank steak, not frozen, and marinate it 12 - 24 hours. This isn't to tenderize the steak, but to add flavour. I broil flank steak for about 6 to 8 minutes each side, then tented with foil for up to 20 minutes before slicing thinly across the grain. Don't slice immediately after cooking; the resting period is important. So I think you should thaw (in the refrigerator) and marinate the steak first.
