Air Fryer Steak

Cultural Context

Air fryer steak is a modern American dish that has gained popularity for its convenience and ability to produce a juicy, flavorful steak with less oil. The air fryer uses hot air circulation to cook the steak evenly while achieving a desirable crispy exterior. This cooking method has become a favorite for those seeking a quick yet satisfying meal, making steak accessible for weeknight dinners without the need for a grill or stovetop.

steak

🥗Healthier: lean cuts of meat

💰Cheaper: pork chops

Pork chops can be a more affordable alternative while still providing a satisfying meal.

olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: canola oil

Canola oil is often less expensive and has a neutral flavor.

1

Preheat the air fryer to 400°F for 5 minutes.

2

Pat 2 ribeye steaks dry on both sides with paper towels.

3

Evenly coat both sides of the steaks with 1 Tablespoon olive oil and then season with 1 teaspoon kosher salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper and 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder.

4

Add 2 Tablespoons water to the bottom of the air fryer basket. Spray the basket with olive oil nonstick spray.

5

Place one of the steaks into the basket (note, you may be able to fit two in at the same time, just ensure there is room between them for the air to circulate).

6

Air fry for 5 minutes, flip the steak over, and continue to cook for 6-8 more minutes, or until your desired temperature is reached. I pulled my steaks at 140°F for medium. Repeat with the other steak.

7

Allow the steaks to rest (covered) for about 5-10 minutes before serving. Serve topped with a slice of garlic herb compound butter.
