Preparation

Step 1

1. Place steak pieces in a heavy-duty plastic bag, seal, and pound to 1/4" thickness. Cut into 2 equal pieces, diagonally, against the grain.

2. In a small bowl, whisk together 1 TBS olive oil, balsamic vinegar, sugar, and garlic. Put steak into sealable plastic bag and pour marinade over. Seal bag and let sit for 30 minutes at room temperature, or 1 hour in the refrigerator.

2. Meanwhile, combine blue cheese and buttermilk with a fork, mashing until creamy. Stir in a dash of Worchestershire sauce and set aside.

3. Heat a grill pan to medium-high heat. Cut onions into 1/4" rounds and brush both sides with oil. Grill onions 6 minutes per side. Separate into rings and set aside.

4. Remove the steak from the marinade and season both sides with salt and pepper. Discard marinade. Grill steak over medium-high heat until medium-rare.

5. Arrange onions on serving plate and top with steak. Drizzle with blue cheese sauce. Serve immediately.
