Grilled Steak with Roquefort Sauce

1. 1

   Preheat a grill or broiler until quite hot and put the rack no more than 4 inches from the heat source.

2. 2

   Put the butter in a small saucepan and turn the heat to medium; when the butter melts and its foam begins to subside, add the shallot and cook until soft, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes.

3. 3

   Add the vinegar, stir, and cook until it is just about evaporated, 1 or 2 minutes.

4. 4

   Turn the heat to low and stir in the cheese and the cayenne.

5. 5

   Stir occasionally until the cheese melts, then taste and adjust the seasoning as necessary (the sauce probably wont need any salt).

6. 6

   Keep warm while you grill the steaks.

7. 7

   Season the steaks well with salt and pepper, then grill or broil them for 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium-rare, longer or shorter according to your taste.

8. 8

   Serve the steaks with a spoonful or two of sauce over each, garnished with the parsley or chives if you like.
