Add the spinach to the skillet in handfuls, stirring after each addition. Cook until all the spinach is wilted, about ⏱️ 12 minutes. Push the spinach to one side of the skillet. Add the cream cheese to the other side and smash it until mostly melted, about ⏱️ 2 minutes, then stir into the spinach. Stir in 1/4 teaspoon salt, a few grinds of pepper and the nutmeg. Keep warm.

Put the peppercorns and sugar in a resealable plastic bag and crush using a rolling pin or skillet. Season the steak with the remaining 1 teaspoon salt, then coat both sides with the peppercorn mixture, pressing to adhere.

Add the remaining 4 tablespoons butter, the rosemary and crushed garlic to the skillet. Tilt the pan toward you and spoon the butter over the steak until the crust is burnished and the internal temperature is 115 ̊ for medium rare, about 5 more minutes.

Transfer the steak to a cutting board, cover with foil and let rest ⏱️ 10 minutes. Thinly slice the steak against the grain and serve with the creamed spinach.
