**SERVES 4**

**Make Ahead**

You can mix the sauce
up to 4 hours ahead. Cover,
but do not refrigerate. If
refrigerated overnight, bring
sauce to room temperature
before serving.

**VARIATION**

Pork chops make
a great-tasting
stand-in for the
porterhouse steaks.

**1** Preheat broiler.
Sprinkle steaks with
salt and pepper. Layer
onion slices in a broiler
pan. Pour wine over
onions; top with butter.

**2** Place steaks over
onions. Broil steaks
5 minutes per side for rare,
8 minutes per side for
medium. Remove steaks
from pan. Place on a
serving platter; cover.

**3** Stir onions. Broil
until wine is almost
evaporated and onions
are tender. Remove pan
from oven.

**4** Meanwhile, for sauce,
whisk oil, parsley,
garlic, pepper flakes and
salt in a small bowl. Serve
steaks on a layer of onions.
Top with sauce.

Make It Quicker

• Leftover steak can
make a quick, well-
rounded lunch. Cut
steak into bite-size
chunks and heat with
your favorite canned
vegetable soup.
