To prepare: Salt and pepper each side of the 4 steak fillets. Wrap outter edge of each fillet with a piece of priscuitto (use toothpicks to adhere proscuitto to steak if needed). Place 1 Tbsp of butter on each fillet. Place fillets about 4" apart on a broiler safe baking sheet. Place in broiler for 7-8 min (flip at half way mark). Remove from broiler and let rest for a few minutes. Note, if you like yours more well done, add a few minutes to baking time. Remove toothpicks and place on serving plates. Pour Dubliner cheese sauce over fillets and sprinkle tops with basil and sesame seeds. Serve with a nice glass of Bordeaux.
