05 - 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
06 - 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
07 - 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
08 - 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
09 - 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
10 - 1/2 teaspoon salt
11 - 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

→ Fries
13 - 2 lbs russet potatoes, peeled and cut into fries
14 - 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
15 - 1 teaspoon salt
16 - 1/2 teaspoon paprika
17 - 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
# Method:
01 - Preheat oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - Toss potato fries with vegetable oil, salt, paprika, and black pepper. Arrange evenly on the baking sheet and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, turning halfway through, until golden and crisp.
03 - While fries bake, pat steak cubes dry using paper towels.
04 - In a large bowl, mix Cajun seasoning, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, oregano, black pepper, and salt. Add steak cubes and toss to ensure even coating.
05 - Warm olive oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add steak bites in a single layer, working in batches if necessary, and sear for 1 to 2 minutes per side until nicely browned and cooked to desired doneness.
06 - Add unsalted butter to the skillet, tossing steak bites to glaze them evenly and achieve a glossy finish.
07 - Remove from heat, sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley, and serve immediately alongside the crispy fries.
