5. Melt 3 tablespoons butter in a skillet over medium-high heat.

6. Fry each steak in the butter for barely two to three minutes, turning once.

7. Transfer to a dish and cover.

8. Melt the remaining butter in the same skillet.

9. Add the onions and saute until they are golden.

10. Transfer the onions to the dish holding the steaks.

12. Using the flat edge of a wooden spatula, scrape up the caramelized coating on the bottom of the pan.

13. Increase the heat to medium-high and reduce the sauce by half.

14. Return the onions and beef to the sauce and heat through for 1 minute.
