Ingredients

  • .75 pound steak flat iron or strip steak
  • 1/2 red onion small, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped
  • 2 stalks celery thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 lemon
  • 1 tablespoon worcestershire
  • 1 tablespoon hot sauce I like Louisiana brand
  • 1 tablespoon butter softened
  • 1/4 pound smoked blue cheese regular would work fine as well
  • salt and pepper

Instructions

  • Put the sliced onions in a bowl of cold water to take the bite out if them while you prepare everything else.
  • Combine the Worcestershire and hot sauce in a bowl large enough to hold the steak. Prick the steak all over with a fork and then add it to the bowl with the sauce. Let that rest in there while you make the butter.
  • Mix together the butter, blue cheese, and 1/2 tablespoon of the parsley with some salt and pepper. Reserve for later.
  • Heat a large cast iron skillet over high heat and add 1 tablespoon of oil then add the steak. Do not move it until the bottom browns, about 5 minutes. Flip and cook for at least another 5 minutes, use a thermometer in the thickest part of the meat to be sure. You may need to lower the heat a bit, You want 140 to 145 for medium rare. When it is just shy of the desired temp remove from the heat, cover with foil, and prepare the salad.
  • Drain the onion and combine it with the sliced celery, 1/2 tablespoon of oil, remaining parsley, juice from half the lemon salt and pepper.
  • Slice the steak and divide it among the plates, top with blue cheese butter and serve the salad along side.
