A comforting loaded baked potato topped with tender steak bites and rich Parmesan cream 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 8–10 cloves)
  • 2 tablespoons Cajun seasonings (low sodium is ideal; adjust salt accordingly)
  • 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
  • 0.5–1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Poke holes into the scrubbed and dried potatoes with a fork. Rub them generously with olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt. Place them directly on the oven rack and bake for about 45-60 minutes, or until the skins are crispy and a fork easily pierces the flesh.
  2. While the potatoes are baking, cut your steak of choice into bite-sized pieces. Season them with kosher salt, garlic, Cajun seasonings, and a drizzle of avocado oil. Make sure each piece is well-coated with those robust flavors.
  3. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add 2 tablespoons of avocado oil. Once hot, add the seasoned steak bites in batches (to avoid overcrowding) and cook them for about 3-4 minutes until they are browned and cooked to your desired doneness. Remove them from the skillet and set aside.
  4. In the same skillet, add the heavy cream and stir to combine with any remaining steak juices. Bring to a gentle simmer and whisk in the grated Parmesan cheese. Stir in the softened butter, minced parsley, lemon juice, red pepper flakes, and black pepper. Let this creamy deliciousness simmer for a few minutes until it thickens slightly. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
  5. Once the potatoes are baked, remove them from the oven and cut them open lengthwise. Fluff the insides with a fork. Spoon generous portions of the steak bites over each potato and drizzle with your rich Parmesan cream sauce. Finish with a sprinkle of fresh parsley for that pop of color.

Notes

For quicker bake time, microwave the potatoes for 5-7 minutes before baking. Adjust Cajun seasoning according to spice preference.
