What is a good side dish for London Broil?!
I am making my family dinner on Sunday, midday, and it is going to be a huge London broil that was marinated!. My family is not into anything "fancy," or extremely gourmet!.
Ex: I tried to make them balsamic greenbeans instead of the regular green beans with butter, and I got the thumbs down!
Does anyone know any good comfort food recipes for a side to go with the London broil!? I need 2, for it to be a complete meal!.
also- has anyone ever served a LB with sauteed onions!? They were requested, and I am wondering if I should put them directly on top, or serve them on the side!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Add steak to marinade, turning to coat, and marinate, chilled, turning bag occasionally, at least 4 hours!.

Trim root ends of onions slightly, leaving them intact, then halve lengthwise and cut halves lengthwise into 3/4-inch-thick wedges!. Insert 1 wooden pick horizontally through each wedge (to keep it intact while grilling)!. Whisk together remaining tablespoon vinegar and 1 1/2 tablespoons oil and salt and pepper to taste in a bowl and add onions, tossing gently to coat!.
To cook steak using a charcoal grill: Open vents on bottom of grill!. Light a large chimney starter of charcoal (80 to 100 briquettes) and pour lit charcoal onto bottom rack, leaving about one quarter of bottom rack free of charcoal and banking remaining coals across rest of bottom rack so that coals are about 3 times higher on opposite side!. Charcoal fire is medium-hot when you can hold your hand 5 inches above thickest layer of coals for 3 to 4 seconds!. Sear steak on lightly oiled grill rack over thickest layer of coals, uncovered, 1 minute on each side, then move steak to area over fewer coals and grill, uncovered, turning occasionally and moving to coolest area of grill if browning too quickly, until thermometer inserted horizontally 2 inches into meat registers 120 degrees F, 10 to 12 minutes!. Transfer to a plate and let stand 10 minutes (steak will continue to cook, reaching medium-rare)!.
To cook steak using a gas grill: Preheat all burners on high, covered, 10 minutes!.
Sear steak on lightly oiled grill rack, uncovered, 1 minute on each side, then reduce heat to moderate!. Grill steak, covered, turning occasionally, until thermometer inserted horizontally 2 inches into meat registers 120 degrees F, 10 to 12 minutes!.

To grill onions by either method: While steak is standing, grill onions (covered only if using a gas grill) over moderate heat, turning over once, until tender, about 6 minutes!.
