     For some reason, I never got around to posting this recipe after I made it this summer on our outdoor grill.  (Probably had something to do with all of the time I was devoting to the kitchen renovation.)
     We ate it as called for in the recipe, wrapped in warmed corn tortillas.  If my memory serves me correctly, it was very good.



                          : Grilled Chili-Rubbed Flank Steak :
                  recipe by Bruce Aidells | Food & Wine Magazine, November 2003

Ingredients:
• 1 large garlic clove
• 1 tablespoon chopped red onion
• 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
• 2 teaspoons chili powder
• 2 teaspoons salt
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• One 1 1/2 pound flank steak
• Ten lime wedges
• 3 1/2 ounces Monterey Jack Cheese, shredded
• 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
• Twelve 6-inch corn tortillas, warmed

1.  In a processor, pulse the garlic with the onion, lime juice, chili powder, salt and cumin.  With the machine on, slowly drizzle in the olive oil until a wet paste forms.  Rub the paste all over the steak.
2.  Light a grill or preheat a grill pan.  Grill the steak over a medium-high fire, turning once, until an instant read thermometer inserted in the thickest part registers 125˚ to 130˚ F for medium-rare.  Transfer the steak to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes.
3.  Cut the steak across the grain into 1/4-inch slices.  Arrange the meat on a platter.  Squeeze two lime wedges over the steak slices, then top with the shredded cheese and cilantro.  Serve with the warm corn tortillas and the remaining lime wedges.

Eileen, I'm working on deconstructing the dining room (i.e.,Tom, A.D.D., and time on my hands). This recipe is great for make it and eat it for a couple days, while I'm preoccupied with demo mode. Thanks!
