→ Parmesan Cream Sauce

03 - 10 minced garlic cloves, split in half
04 - 2 diced green onions (both white and green parts)
05 - 5 tbsp butter, used in parts
06 - 2/3 cup grated or shredded parmesan cheese
07 - 1.5 cups of heavy whipping cream
08 - 1 tsp of crushed red pepper flakes

→ Cheesy Mashed Potatoes

09 - 6 tbsp melted salted butter
10 - 1 cup of warm half and half
11 - 3/4 tsp of salt
12 - 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
13 - 4 lbs russet potatoes
14 - 1 tsp of garlic powder
15 - 3/4 cup shredded monterey jack cheese

→ Homemade Blackened Seasoning

16 - 1 tbsp cayenne pepper
17 - 2 tsp garlic powder
18 - 1 tsp salt
19 - 1/2 tsp dried oregano
20 - 1/2 tsp dried thyme
21 - 1 tbsp onion powder
22 - 1 tsp black pepper
23 - 2 tbsp smoked paprika

# Steps:

01 - Slice steaks into chunks, about 2-3 inches wide. Coat with avocado oil and seasoning mix. Give it a 10-15 minutes rest. Meanwhile, peel and cut potatoes into quarters. Submerge them in cold water for 10 minutes to wash off starch, then drain the water.
02 - With a skillet over medium-high heat, pour 2-3 tbsp avocado oil. Lay out the steak pieces and leave them untouched for 2 minutes. Flip 'em over and cook just 1 more minute. Turn the heat lower and let 'em cook another 60 seconds. Place cooked steak in a bowl.
03 - Use the same pan and melt 3 tbsp butter with 1 tbsp garlic. Cook until it smells amazing. Drop the steak back in and mix everything well. Let the steak sit for one more minute in the butter, then set it aside with foil on top.
04 - Take your skillet again and melt 2 tbsp butter with the rest of the garlic—let it cook until aromatic. Pour in the cream very slowly, whisking as you go, and let it simmer. Give it 3-5 minutes to thicken up. Toss in the cheese, red pepper flakes, and diced onions. Keep whisking till it's smooth. Adjust seasoning if needed.
05 - Drain your boiled potatoes thoroughly. Add melted butter and warmed half and half, mashing nicely. Once creamy, fold in the garlic powder, cheese, salt, and some black pepper.
06 - Scoop mashed potatoes onto plates, pile steak bites on top, then drizzle with that creamy parmesan sauce. Serve nice and hot!

# Additional Notes:

01 - Leave the steaks out on your counter for a bit before cooking—this helps them cook more evenly.
