# Method steps:
01 - Preheat oven to 425°F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - Toss potato fries with vegetable oil, salt, paprika, and black pepper. Arrange them evenly on the baking sheet and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, turning once halfway through, until golden and crisp.
03 - Pat steak cubes dry with paper towels to ensure proper searing.
04 - Mix Cajun seasoning, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, oregano, black pepper, and salt in a large bowl. Add steak cubes and toss until evenly coated.

06 - Introduce unsalted butter to the skillet and toss steak bites to coat them until glossy and flavorful.
07 - Remove skillet from heat, sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over steak bites, and serve hot alongside crispy fries.
