SKIRT STEAK WITH SHALLOT-THYME BUTTER
Steve Johnson, the chef at the Blue Room in Cambridge, Mass., has been cooking skirt steak for years, long before it became wildly popular. But never before has he served a better - or simpler - rendition of this long, thin band of wonderfully marbled beef. His secret: a slice of compound butter, flavored with shallots, chives and thyme, that melts over the meat. It had been so long since I had seen flavored butter on steak that this version came as something of a revelation.

Steps:
- Prepare a gas or charcoal grill; the fire should be so hot you can hold your hand over it for only a couple of seconds.
- Meanwhile, cream the butter with a fork, adding thyme, chives, shallot, 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper and the vinegar or juice.
- Grill the steak, 2 minutes a side for rare, about a minute longer per side for medium-rare. As it cooks, season with salt and pepper.
- Spread each steak with about a tablespoon of the flavored butter, and serve. Remaining butter can be wrapped and refrigerated or frozen.
