Mix ingredients together until combined and the butter is light and fluffy. On a sheet of baking paper shape the butter into a log, roll up the paper and twist ends to secure. Refrigerate till the butter is firm. Remove from the fridge 5 minutes before serving.
  2. To prepare the onion rings, peel the onions and cut into rings approximately ½ cm thick, in a bowl combine the flour, and a pinch of sea salt, dust the rings in the flour and set aside.
  3. Add the egg to the flour and whisk in a little milk at a time to create a smooth batter (you may not need all of the milk) Dip the floured onion rings in the batter and shake off any excess, crumb in the breadcrumbs, then deep-fry until golden brown, keep warm.
  4. Preheat a large frypan over a high heat or barbecue grill plate.
  5. Season the pork scotch steaks with the smoked paprika and sea salt, drizzle with olive oil.
  6. Cook the pork steaks for approximately 5-7 minutes on each side, rest for 5 minutes before serving.
  7. To serve, slice the chipotle butter and place on top of the steaks, serve with the onion rings and a green salad.
