    I would use a little less oil, not 1/3 cup as suggested and add a bit more seasoning after cooking. The steak was cooked to perfection for me with 3 min on each side and additional 1 1/2 min on each side. I used the leftovers for a sandwich for my son and threw the rest in a salad for hubby. Would definitely recommend this recipe to family and friends.

    This is the best way to eat steak. This is easy to cook and really tasty to eat. The preparation is simple, but the results are very flavorful and mouthwatering. Really, how can rare steak with garlic, lemon and thyme be bad? The answer: it can't! Please try this!

    This was good and easy. I used a 1 1/4#, 1" thick London Broil, which is what I think she used in the show. I cooked the first sides each 4 min, then 1 1/2 mins per side on the second turn. This resulted in medium rare steak and perfect for me. It was very tender with a crisp crust on the outside.....Yummy! I also needed to pour the marinade over the steak once it was sliced, as well as add some salt and pepper, after which the steak was very tasty...Thanks Nigella!

    This was fast and really very tasty. I love my meat rare and the cooking time indicated is spot on. If you don't like your meat rare plan to cook longer on each side.

    The only change I made was to use 1/4 cup of olive oil instead of 1/3 in the marinade. I like the lemon bit to be stronger.

    My TV service is East coast time here in California and it was so worth it to be up at 4:30am today to watch Nigella!

    Cheers!

    It seems counter-intuitive to marinade afterwards, but it works and it so good! Served it over some arugula for a perfect easy dinner.

    This was delicious. I used filets and made it for Christmas dinner. It was so easy that it took the stress off dinner. My guests compared it to a restaurant! YUM!

    First off, I agree with those who say sirloin is the best way to go for this. I tried to see how much I could stray from the path by grilling a beef roast and doing the marinade...should've known grilling a roast wasn't a smart idea. I finished that off in the oven with the marinade, though, and it was heaven.

    This has really become my favorite flavoring for every steak I buy, large or small. And I always feel like Nigella herself later in the evening, as I sneak to the fridge for a nibble of the leftovers, which are just as good cold as hot.

    This truly is an express recipe for adding a incredible boost of flavor to an everyday food.

    This is a wonderful recipe - easy and flavorful, but the cautions about choosing your steak well are right on. The quality of the meat makes or breaks this dish. I've made this with two different cuts of steak and sirloin is definitely the way to go. Also, cook the meat a bit rarer than you usually would, it continues to "cook" in the lemon juice of the marinade. I also sliced the steak after a few minutes and let it marinate again. Took the leftovers (steak and marinade and added it to some mixed greens for a salad the next day. Excellent.
