Season with salt and cayenne pepper. Add the leaves from the remaining half bunch of tarragon and buzz in the blender a couple of times. Hold the Béarnaise sauce in a bowl covered with plastic wrap, over a barely simmering water bath.

Pre-heat an outdoor grill or grill pan. Grill the marinated flank steak for about 8 to ⏱️ 10 minutes on each side until an instant read thermometer inserted into the center of the steak registers140º F. Transfer the steak to a cutting board and let it rest for at least ⏱️ 5 minutes.

While the steak is cooking, prepare the onions and bread. Pre-heat a large frying pan. Add olive oil and sauté the onions until lightly browned, about ⏱️ 5 minutes, seasoning with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Deglaze the pan with Worcestershire sauce and toss to coat the onions. Remove the onions from the pan and cover with foil to keep them warm. Wipe out the pan and add another tablespoon of olive oil. Toast the bread slices in the olive oil on both sides until golden brown.
