On a hot grill, cook the steak for 7 to 8 minutes on each side until medium-rare and remove from the grill. Allow to rest for 5 minutes, then slice into 1-inch pieces. Divide the chile-onion mixture onto 4 plates and top with the sliced steak. Next, top with some Epazote Butter, however much you'd like, and put the plate under a broiler just for a few seconds, long enough for the butter to melt. Good to go.

In a blender, puree the epazote, cilantro, garlic, lime juice, salt and pepper with 1/2 cup water. Then take herb puree and mix well with softened butter until a green butter occurs. Once mixed, you can wrap in parchment paper and freeze. It keeps for up to a month.
Cava, Grenache, and Shiraz are great choices for Chili. These juicy reds don't have too much tannin (important for spicy foods), but a sparkling wine like cava can tame the heat even better. You could try Cava Mestres Reserva Brut 1312. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.6 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 19 dollars per bottle.
