Help us to love You with a pure and contrite heart, and to humble ourselves beneath Your cross, as we climb the mountain of holiness, carrying our cross that leads to heavenly glory. May we receive You with great faith and love in Holy Communion, and allow You to act in us as You desire for your greater glory. O Jesus, most adorable Heart and eternal fountain of Divine Love, may our prayer find favor before the Divine Majesty of Your heavenly Father. ***** RECIPES FROM RITA: GRILLED CARNE ASADA Ingredients 2 pounds skirt steak – can use flank or flat iron if necessary Carne Asada Marinade 1 jalapeño seeded and minced – or more to taste 4 cloves garlic minced – nice large ones 1/2 cup cilantro leaves chopped – Matt would use way more…. Juice from 1 of each: orange, lime and lemon 2 tablespoons cider vinegar 1/3 cup olive oil or bit more 1 teaspoon ground cumin 1 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper Instructions In a large glass baking dish whisk together Carne Asada marinade ingredients (jalapeño through black pepper) until combined. Add skirt steak in a single layer, turning to coat with marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, but no longer than 8 hours (longer will begin to break down the meat – if using flank or flat iron steak it can stay up to 12 hour or so). Grill steaks on medium high for 7 to 10 minutes per side (if they are each about 1 pound; if they are thinner they will take only a few minutes per side so take this into account), turning once for medium-rare. Remove steaks and allow to rest for 5 minutes. Slice thinly across the grain and serve. Great go withs: Blistered tortillas, guacamole, pico de Gallo, sour cream, salsa, Cotija cheese, lime wedges, etc. ***** Dr. Benjamin Reinhard, author of The High Hallow: Tolkien’s Liturgical Imagination Full list of guestsSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
