For the butter:

• 3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh cilantro
• 2 tablespoon finely chopped fresh scallions
• 1 teaspoon of ground cumin
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 1 stick unsalted butter, at room temperature
• 1/4 lime

For the steaks:

• 4 T-bone steaks
• 4 tablespoons olive oil
• 3 tablespoons white vinegar
• Salt and pepper
• 5 garlic cloves

Directions:

1. To make the butter: In a small bowl, using a fork, mix the herbs, cumin, a pinch of salt and a some grinds of pepper into the butter.
2. Squeeze the juice from the lime into the butter and mix it. Using a spatula, scrape the butter out of the bowl onto waxed paper or plastic wrap.
3. Roll the paper over the butter and form a log. Continue rolling the paper, or plastic, around the butter and twist both ends. Refrigerate until ready to use. Keep up to 4 days, or freeze up to 1 month.
4. In a food processor, combine the olive oil, vinegar and garlic and process until finely chopped. Season the steaks with salt and pepper and place them in a dish, then add the marinade and turn to coat. Place in the fridge for about 30 minutes to 2 hours. Heat the grill and oil the grill rack, or preheat a broiler.
5. Remove the steaks from the marinade. Place the steaks on the grill rack, or put them on a baking sheet and place under the broiler. Cook, turning the steaks once, for about 8 minutes total for medium-rare, or until done to your liking. Top the steaks with the butter and serve immediately.
