Skillet Cooked Skirt Steak with Blue Cheese Butter (page 217)

This was my first attempt at skirt steak and it could not have been easier or more tasty.  Just a couple of notes: 

• Remember, 1 shallot=1 Tablespoon chopped shallots.  Any more would over power the blue cheese butter.
• Hamersley suggests one pound of skirt steak for two people.  That is a lot of protein.  This will serve four people if paired with a side dish and a green salad.

The bottom line:  Another wonderful take on bistro cooking.
