1. Line the sheet with aluminum foil.
2. Grease the aluminum foil with the cooking spray.

• Roast the Brussels sprouts and potatoes.

1. Start by halving the potatoes lengthwise.
2. Next, pluck off any sprouts that are longer than your desired trimming width (you can also do this in advance if you prefer).
3. Then quarter them vertically so they lay flat against one another like an accordion; remember to leave space between each piece.
4. After that, place the halved Brussels sprouts on top of one half in an oil-based skillet with 2 tsp olive oil plus salt and pepper to taste.
5. Next, spread them out into a single layer so they can be roasted for 22 minutes alongside potatoes cooked until tender but not overcooked.

• Prepare other ingredients 

1. To start, mincing chive springs is a good idea.
2. Next, pat sirloin steaks dry with a kitchen towel.
3. Season both sides well in advance of cooking time to taste preference. When done, add more salt or pepper if desired.

• Cook the steaks

1. Put the steaks onto a medium pan over heat and add 4 Tbsp olive oil.
2. Let it get hot enough so you can cook your meat for about 7 minutes per side or until nicely browned.
3. Remove from stove when cooked through.
4. Lastly, transfer the browned steaks to a plate and let rest for about 3 minutes.

• Make a cheese sauce

1. Put the pot over medium heat and add ¼ cup water, followed by cream cheese.
2. Please bring it to a simmer for about 2 minutes while constantly stirring until combined/smooth. 
3. Place the smoked gouda pieces in a saucepan and heat over medium-low heat until golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes.
4. But don’t forget about those chive springs.
5. Take out your mortar & pestle or food processor now if you’ve been using it for other recipes, so they’re not sitting around getting forgotten about while everything else is cooking away.

• Complete the dish

1. Now serve the steaks, one side per plate.
2. Serve the Brussel sprouts with the potatoes.
3. Drizzle the sprouts and potatoes with balsamic glaze.
4. Top the potatoes and sprouts with the cheese sauce.
5. Top the steaks with a good amount of garlic herb butter.
6. Enjoy the warm dish with your partner.
