To prepare jam, grate tomatoes, flesh side down, over a large bowl to form 5 1\/2 C. pulp; discard skins. Combine pulp, sugar, onion, 3 garlic cloves, and 2 jalape\u00c3\u00b1os in a medium saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer until reduced to 2 1\/4 C. (about 20 minutes), stirring occasionally. Cool to room temperature. Stir in cilantro, 3 T. juice, and 1\/4 tsp. salt. To prepare steak, combine rind, 1\/3 C. juice, oil, 2 jalape\u00c3\u00b1os, and 2 garlic cloves in a large zip-top plastic bag. Add steak; seal. Marinate in refrigerator 8 hours or overnight, turning bag occasionally. Prepare grill. Remove steak from bag; discard marinade. Sprinkle both sides of steak evenly with 1\/2 tsp. salt. Place steak on a grill rack coated with cooking spray; grill 3 minutes on each side or until desired degree of doneness. Let stand 5 minutes. Cut steak diagonally across the grain into thin slices. Serve with jam. Garnish with lemon slices, if desired. Theme and variations: As made exactly from this recipe, this dish has lots of uses. I had mine salad-style on a bed of peppery arugula. My other half folded his between flour tortillas for a delicious soft taco. I have my eyes on the leftovers for a great steak sandwich in a toasted roll. The arugula would be great with it again, but I might also add a dollop of horseradish mayo or some grilled onions. I’m thinking that you could take it even further. With the cilantro and jalapeno, the jam has a definite Southwestern flair. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
