Ingredients
  

1 lb flank steak

Salt and pepper (to taste)

8 small slider buns

1/2 cup mayonnaise

1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped

1 tablespoon chives, chopped

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

1 cup arugula or mixed greens

Optional: sliced jalapeños for heat

Instructions
 

Prepare the Cowboy Butter: In a small bowl, mix the softened butter, minced garlic, chopped parsley, chives, smoked paprika, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Stir until fully combined and set aside.

    Cook the Steak: Season the flank steak with salt and pepper on both sides. Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the steak for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until it reaches your desired doneness.

      Rest the Steak: Once cooked, remove the steak from the heat and let it rest for about 5-10 minutes before slicing. This helps retain its juices.

        Slice the Steak: Cut the rested steak against the grain into thin strips.

          Prepare the Slider Buns: Toast the slider buns on the grill or in a toaster until lightly golden.

            Assemble the Sliders: Spread a generous amount of cowboy butter on the bottom half of each toasted slider bun. Layer with a few strips of steak and top with a handful of arugula (and jalapeños if using). Finish with the top half of the bun.

              Serve: Arrange the sliders on a serving platter, and serve with extra cowboy butter on the side for dipping.

                  - Presentation Tips: Serve in a rustic wooden board, garnished with additional herbs for a cowboy touch, and place small bowls of extra cowboy butter and sliced jalapeños nearby for guests to add as they please.
