Recipe Introduction
This butter recipe is wonderful served with any grilled meat. As it melts into the hot steak, the aroma that drifts up is irresistible! Ribeye steaks are my favorite.
1 cup fresh basil leaves
1/2 cup chopped pistachios or hazelnuts
1 Tbsp. lemon juice
2 cloves garlic, minced
7 Tbsp. butter, softened (NOT margarine)
2 Tbsp. grated Parmesan cheese
Salt and pepper to taste
6 rib eye steaks OR salmon steaks
In food processor or blender, combine all ingredients except steaks. Process or blend till mixture is even. Cover the blended butter and chill this mixture and then form it into a roll 1" in diameter. Wrap in waxed paper and chill until firm, up to 24 hours. For longer storage, freeze the butter.
Prepare and preheat grill. Grill steaks 6" above medium coals, turning once with tongs, until steak is cooked to desired doneness and salmon flakes when tested with fork. OR place on broiler pan and broil 4-6" from heat source for 10-15 minutes, turning once with tongs, until steak is cooked to desired doneness. Let the meat sit for about 5 minutes before serving, then slice the chilled butter and place on top of the hot steak, letting it melt into the meat.. Serves 6
