Step 1
Pat the 2 steaks dry and season both sides with salt and pepper. Let them sit at room temperature for 10 minutes.
Step 2
Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over high heat. Add the steaks and cook for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, until browned and firm to the touch.
Step 3
Remove steaks to a plate and let rest. In the same skillet, add 1 tbsp olive oil and the 1 sliced onion. Cook over medium heat, stirring, until soft and golden, about 8 minutes.
Step 4
Mix the 3 tbsp butter with the 2 tbsp parsley. Top each steak with a spoonful of herb butter and the fried onions.
Step 5
Serve the steaks with the 4 cups mixed salad greens tossed with the remaining olive oil and a pinch of salt.
