Beefsteak and Onions.
Flatten the steak with the broad side of a hatchet; broil over clear coals; lay upon a chafing-dish, and pour over it a little melted butter in which has been stewed a quarter of an onion sliced. Strain out the onion; pepper and salt the butter; squeeze in the juice of half a lemon. After it is poured over the steak, put a hot cover over it, and let it stand five minutes before serving. Steak thus treated has a delicious flavor.
