At Sweet C’s, I add lots of tips in all of my recipes – because I am a home cook without any formal training, and I find I am more confident making dishes when I understand why it works, and what each ingredient means to the flavor of a recipe – my goal is for even the most beginner home cook to feel empowered in the kitchen.

I want each reader to walk away with a solid knowledge of each recipe, with all of the tips I’ve gathered from extensive testing of each recipe. I also answer questions my friends and family have asked about my recipes, to help everyone better understand the processes we use – and why!

Crispy Moist Air Fryer London Broil

If you love London broil, and how tender, juicy, and delicious it is you’re going to really love it in the air fryer! Air fried London broil gets a much stronger crust because of the increased air circulation in an air fryer.

London broil is a great cut of meat to feed your family without breaking the budget. It is also great for a keto or low carb diet, or a quick and easy family dinner.

How To Air Fry London Broil

London Broil Marinade. The first step for an amazing London Broil is marinading it for as long as possible. You will need to marinade it 2 hours minimum, 24 hours is ideal. Mix the following for a dynamite London Broil marinade:

  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika (this isn’t traditional for London broil but we love the flavor it gives steak in the air fryer)
  • 1 tbsp fresh chopped parsley
  • 1 tbsp fresh chopped oregano
  • ยฝ tbsp fresh thyme
  • 2 tsp sea salt
  • 1 tsp ground black pepper

Tips and Tricks to Perfect Air Fryer London Broil

Air frying London broil is insanely easy – but there are a couple tips and tricks to keep it tender, juicy, and delicious!

  • Don’t skip the marinade time – it is essential to London broil to marinate for at least 2 hours.
  • Cook at the highest heat possible in your air fryer – you want a lovely char on the outside, and cooking it hot and fast will keep it from drying out.
  • Set the London broil in the air fryer however you can fit it in – if you have a round air fryer basket, some of the steak will go up the sides – that’s fine, but try to lay it out instead of letting it bunch up or fold over on itself.
  • Flip London broil halfway through cooking for an even sear.

How Long to Air Fry London Broil. London broil is best when cooked very fast and very hot – crank your air fryer as high as it goes, and plan on a 10-15 minute cook time depending on the size of your top round and how done you’d like your London broil. In these photos, I air fried my London Broil at 450 for 15 minutes for a medium rare, and flipped it once in the middle of cooking. The internalย temperatureย on a London broil should readย 135 degreesย forย mediumย rare andย 145 degreesย forย mediumย to well done.
