Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 425°F (220°C) and prepare a baking pan with parchment paper.
Bake the Potatoes: Rub each potato with olive oil and generously sprinkle sea salt all over. Arrange the potatoes on the baking pan and bake for about 50-60 minutes, or until they're tender when pierced with a fork.
Prepare the Steak: Trim any excess fat from the steak and cut it into 2-inch pieces. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of avocado oil and season well with Cajun seasoning.
Cook the Steak: In a cast iron or regular skillet, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of avocado oil over medium-high heat. Cook the steak without moving it for about 2 minutes until it’s golden brown. Flip the steak and cook for another minute, then lower the heat and continue cooking for an additional minute.
Add Garlic Butter: Move the steak to one side of the skillet. On the other side, add 2 tablespoons of butter and 1 tablespoon of minced garlic. Sauté until fragrant. Toss the steak in the garlic butter and let it cook for another minute. Remove the steak from the skillet and cover with foil to keep warm.
Make the Parmesan Cream Sauce: In the same skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and the last tablespoon of garlic. Sauté until fragrant, then slowly whisk in the heavy cream. Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it reduce for 3-5 minutes. Stir in the red pepper flakes and grated Parmesan, whisking until the sauce thickens. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. Off the heat, mix in the parsley and lemon juice.
Finish the Potatoes: Carefully lift each potato and drop it from about 12 inches above the baking pan to fluff the insides. Cut them in half to open and fluff with a fork. Spread the remaining butter over the potatoes.
