Grilled Sirloin with Blue Cheese Compound Butter
Ingredients
- ½ cup unsalted butter, 1 stick, room temperature
- 2 ounces crumbled blue cheese
- 2 tablespoons minced fresh chives
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt, plus additional for seasoning the steak
- 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus additional for seasoning the steak
- Extra-virgin olive oil, for the grill
- 4 4-6 ounce sirloin steaks
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, mix together the butter, blue cheese, chives, garlic, ¼ teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Spoon the mixture onto a large square of plastic wrap and shape into a log. Roll tightly and secure the ends. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
- Heat the grill to medium-high and oil the grates. Season the steaks with salt and pepper. Grill for 5-6 minutes per side for medium doneness. As soon as the steaks are finished, transfer to a plate and top each with a slice of the compound butter. Allow to rest for a few minutes while the butter softens, then serve.
Notes
Remaining compound butter may be refrigerated for up to 1 week or frozen for up to 1 month. Try it on burgers, baked potatoes, or grilled corn.
