If you prefer you can create on database manually this FK with cascade delete, and check why you are havign this circular cascade loop. To understand that we need the other tables or the database structure involved. Please inspect your database (with a diagram for example), draw down your connected tables, your FKs and for each study the operation you planned (cascade delete, no action, ...) and the direction of them. You fill find a loop when you will try to insert that FK in error.

The next phase is to understand if you want it or not, is an unwanted database design? Or simply you don't need this FK action? In this case you can suppress it in various levels: on model, on settings, ... se the other post or the EF guide for that.
