Too late to do anything except keep cooking it, with the lid on to
retain the moisture. Cook it to death on low heat and it will
tenderize.

Uh, do you have a clue as to why they call it London *Broil*? It's not
meant to be stewed in its own juices.

so, yes, it's too late to do anything reasonable with it.

I've actually had excellent luck with dried out, chewy meat.

Make pot roast!

I cut it into large chunks, toss it into the pressure cooker with some
chopped veggies, appropriate stew spices and some beef or chicken stock.

Bring it up to pressure and pressure for 20 minutes.

It's actually quite good. :-)

Hope this helps?

If you do not have a pressure cooker, use a deep cast iron pot and
simmer it on low for 2 hours. (braise)

It's one of the first cuts of meat that I learned to cook. As long as
it's not beyond medium rare, it has its good points when sliced very
thin.
