This simple and delicious recipe can be prepared in 10 minutes, cooked in 15 minutes and will be enjoyed by the whole family. Sweet date syrup balances the sharpness of the crunchy pomegranate seeds. Ask your butcher to prepare a London Broil cut for you. If the pieces of meat are different sizes the smaller ones will need less cooking time.

Method: 

• Chop the parsley, garlic and onion very finely.
• Put all the ingredients (except for the meat and a few pomegranate seeds which you’ll use for garnish) into a ziplock bag.
• Close the bag and mix well. Now add the meat and if you have time, leave to marinate overnight. If you have less time, an hour will do.
• When you are ready to cook, heat the oven to 180°C and tip the meat and marinade into a shallow oven tray.
• Roast for 6 to 8 minutes on each side - depending if you like it rare or medium.
• Leave to stand for a few minutes and then serve sliced thinly on a platter. Pour the juices on top.
• Sprinkle with the reserved pomegranate seeds and some parsley sprigs.
