Preparation
With fork, mix together butter, anchovies, mustard and lemon juice. Sprinkle steak with pepper; grill or pan-fry until medium-rare. Remove from heat; let stand for 15 minutes. Slice steak into very thin strips. Spread 1 side of each slice of bread with scant 1-1/2 tsp/7 mL butter mixture. Cut off stems from arugula; lay leaves over half of the bread slices.
Top with steak slices; sprinkle with salt to taste. Top with remaining bread slices. Cut off crusts; cut into finger sandwiches as desired.
