Preheat oven to 350 F (180 C).
Rub steaks with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Leave out at room temperature for 30
minutes.
In large heavy skillet, melt butter over medium high heat. Add onions and thyme and cook until
onions are golden, about 10 minutes. Add red pepper, cook one minute. Reduce heat to medium
low, stirring occasionally, until peppers are very tender, about 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, heat ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat, add steaks and sear on both sides until
well browned, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to oven and cook until desired doneness, about
5 minutes for medium rare. Let rest for 10 minutes before thinly slicing. Alternatively, grill over
direct medium-high heat, turning once, until desired doneness.
Slice buns in half lengthwise. Divide steak over each bottom bun and top with onion mixture.
Sprinkle evenly with crumbled cheese. Cover with bun tops. Serve with a crisp green salad.
Makes 6 servings.
*Tip: Use Brie cheese if you do not like blue cheese.
