Season steaks generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add steaks and sear for 3-4 minutes per side (or until cooked to your desired doneness).
Add butter to the skillet and spoon it over the steaks as they finish cooking. Remove steaks and let rest.

In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add shrimp and sprinkle with Cajun seasoning. Cook until pink (about 2 minutes per side). Remove and set aside.
Add garlic to the skillet and sauté for 1 minute.
Stir in heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, and paprika. Simmer until the sauce thickens slightly.
Return shrimp to the skillet and stir to coat in the sauce.

Place the cooked steak on a plate and spoon the creamy Cajun shrimp sauce over the top.
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with mashed potatoes, roasted veggies, or crusty bread.
