Salt
Pepper
Sirloin steaks
Vegetable oil

Season the steaks with salt and pepper and dip in oil. Allow any excess to drain away before grilling.

Place the steaks on the grill. Grill undisturbed for about 2 minutes. Turn the steaks over and complete cooking to desired doneness, about 2 to 4 minutes more.

Top each steak with a slice of the matre d'hotel butter and heat under a broiler until butter begins to melt. Serve at once.

Maitre D'Hotel Butter
8 oz. unsalted butter, room temperature
2 oz. minced parsley
2 tsp lemon juice
salt as needed
pepper as needed

Work the butter by hand or with a paddle attachment until soft. Add the remaining ingredients and blend well. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.

Compound butter is ready to use now, or it may be rolled into a log or piped into shapes and chilled for later use.
