Heat oil in
12" skillet over medium high heat until hot; add
onion and sugar. Cook onion, stirring
occasionally, until it begins to soften but not
brown, 4-5 minutes. Add vinegar and cook until
onions are soft, 2-3 minutes. Add tomatoes and
cook, stirring, until they just begin to soften,
1-2 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat,
stir in the basil, and season the mixture to
taste with salt and pepper. Transfer the mixture
to a bowl and keep warm. |

Season
steaks generously on both sides with salt and
pepper. Wipe out the skillet and melt the butter
in the skillet over medium-high heat. Cook two
of the steaks until nicely browned on both sides
and cooked to your liking, about 3 minutes per
side for medium rare. |

Transfer
steaks to plates or a platter and keep warm
while you cook the remaining two steaks. Serve
steaks topped with onion and tomato salsa. |
