A note about serious food allergies

Sometimes you want a deep meal; a meal that’s read Schopenhauer and can reference the riot during the debut of Stravinksy's Le Sacre du Printemps. Okay, maybe not that deep; maybe just the depth of a steak dinner that's actually finished “Moby Dick.” Or a steak dinner with a sauce of deep demi-glace and rich garlic, herb and cheese, enrobing the steak with pure flavor. Deep, man. Tip: if you're looking for the right texture for the sauce, draw a line through the sauce in the pan. If the line lingers, it's thickened!

  1. 1

    Start the Mashed Potatoes

    Peel and cut potatoes into large evenly-sized chunks.

    Coarsely chop spinach.

    Bring a medium pot with potato chunks covered by water to a boil. Cook until fork-tender, 14-18 minutes.

    Reserve 1/4 cup potato cooking water. Drain potatoes in a colander, then return to pot.

    While potatoes boil, roast Brussels sprouts.

  2. 2

    Roast the Brussels Sprouts

    Trim stems off Brussels sprouts and halve vertically (quarter if larger than a ping-pong ball).

    Place Brussels sprouts on prepared baking sheet and toss with 1 tsp. olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper.

    Spread into a single layer, cut-side down, and roast in hot oven until tender and browned, 12-14 minutes.

    While Brussels sprouts roast, cook steak.

  3. 3

    Cook the Steaks

    Pat steaks dry, and season both sides with a pinch of salt and pepper.

    Place a medium non-stick pan over medium heat and add 1 tsp. olive oil. Add steaks to hot pan and cook until steak reaches desired doneness, or 4-6 minutes per side for medium/medium-well. Steak thickness can vary; if you receive a thinner steak, we recommend checking for doneness sooner.

    Remove from burner. Remove steaks to a plate. Rest, 3 minutes. Wipe pan clean and reserve.

  4. 4

    Finish the Mashed Potatoes

    Add cream cheese, spinach, garlic salt, a pinch of salt, and Parmesan to pot with potatoes,

    Mash until mostly smooth. If too thick, add potato cooking water, 1 Tbsp. at a time, until desired consistency is reached. Cover and set aside.

  5. 5

    Make Sauce and Finish Dish

    Return pan used to cook steaks to medium heat. Add 1/4 cup water, demi-glace, and garlic and herb cheese spread to hot pan. Bring to a simmer.

    Once simmering, stir often until smooth and slightly thickened, 2-3 minutes.

    Remove from burner. Stir in butter until combined.

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, topping steak with sauce. Bon appétit!
