A comforting dish featuring fluffy baked potatoes loaded with tender steak bites and creamy Parmesan sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large russet potatoes, scrubbed clean and patted dry
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1.5 tablespoons sea salt for the potato skins
  • 2 lbs steak (NY strip, ribeye, sirloin, or tenderloin)
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 2 tablespoons garlic, minced (about 810 cloves)
  • 2 tablespoons Cajun seasonings
  • 4 tablespoons avocado oil, divided
  • 1.5 cups heavy cream
  • 2/3 cup Parmesan, grated
  • 6 tablespoons butter, softened
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, minced
  • 2 wedges lemon, juice of
  • 0.51 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Rub the scrubbed potatoes with olive oil and sprinkle them generously with sea salt. Place them directly on the oven rack and bake for about 45 minutes or until a fork easily pierces through the skin.
  2. Heat 2 tablespoons of avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cut your steak into bite-sized pieces, season with kosher salt and Cajun seasoning, and sauté until they are browned and cooked to your liking, about 4-6 minutes. Add minced garlic in the last minute of cooking for a fragrant finish.
  3. In another saucepan, combine the heavy cream and butter over medium heat, stirring gently until the butter is melted. Add the grated Parmesan, lemon juice, red pepper flakes, and black pepper, stirring until the sauce is thick and creamy. Adjust seasoning as desired.
  4. Once the potatoes are baked, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly. Make a slit down the center of each potato and fluff the insides with a fork. Fill each potato with steak bites, drizzle generously with the Parmesan cream sauce, and top with minced parsley for a fresh touch.

Notes

Pairs excellently with a crisp green salad or steamed vegetables. Leftovers can be stored separately in airtight containers.
