01 - 1.5 lbs sirloin steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
02 - 2 tbsp olive oil
03 - 2 tbsp Cajun seasoning (store-bought or homemade)
04 - 1 tsp smoked paprika
05 - 1/2 tsp garlic powder
06 - 1/2 tsp onion powder
07 - 1/2 tsp dried thyme
08 - 1/2 tsp dried oregano
09 - 1/2 tsp black pepper
10 - 1/2 tsp salt
11 - 2 tbsp unsalted butter

→ Fries
13 - 2 lbs russet potatoes, peeled and cut into fries
14 - 2 tbsp vegetable oil
15 - 1 tsp salt
16 - 1/2 tsp paprika
17 - 1/4 tsp black pepper
# How to Make It:
01 - Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - Toss the potato fries with vegetable oil, salt, paprika, and black pepper. Spread them out evenly on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, turning once halfway through, until golden and crisp.
03 - Pat the steak cubes dry thoroughly using paper towels to ensure a good sear.
04 - In a large bowl, mix Cajun seasoning, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, oregano, black pepper, and salt. Add the steak cubes and toss to coat them evenly with the spice blend.
05 - Warm the olive oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat.
06 - Add steak cubes in a single layer, working in batches if needed. Sear each side for 1 to 2 minutes until well browned and cooked to your desired doneness.
07 - Add unsalted butter to the skillet and toss the steak bites until they are fully coated and have a glossy finish.
08 - Remove from heat, sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley, and serve immediately alongside the crisp fries.
