Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 93°C.

Add spring onions and remaining tablespoon butter, 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1/4 teaspoons pepper and cook, tightly covered, over moderate heat until spring onions are tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer spring onions with tongs to a platter and put steaks on top.
