Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat and add the onion and spice mixture; immediately reduce the heat to medium-low. Sauté the ingredients gently over medium-low heat until they are very fragrant. Remove the onion mixture from the heat and let it cool for 10 minutes. Then spoon the onion mixture on the steaks, turning the meat to coat. Refrigerate the steaks, tightly covered, for two to 24 hours so the ingredients can permeate the meat.

When you're ready to cook, prepare and preheat an outdoor gas or charcoal grill. Remove the steaks from the onion marinade and cook over medium-high coals for 10 to 15 minutes or until the desired doneness, at least 145 F as tested with a meat thermometer . When the meat is done, remove it from the heat, place on a clean plate, and cover with foil. Let stand for 5 minutes. Slice the steak thinly across the grain to serve.
