How Long to Air Fry Beef and Broccoli

Air fry beef and broccoli at 400°F (200°C) for 12-16 minutes. Exact settings, when to shake, and how to tell when it is done.

400°F for 12 to 16 minutes, shake at 7.

  1. 1

    Preheat the air fryer to 400°F for 3 minutes.

  2. 2

    Arrange the beef and broccoli in a single layer with space between pieces. Crowding traps steam and stops browning.

  3. 3

    Air fry for 12 to 16 minutes, shaking or flipping at the 7-minute mark.

  4. 4

    Check the thickest piece with a thermometer. It is done at 145°F for whole cuts, 160°F for ground.

Use these settings as a starting point; thickness, quantity, and appliance model affect timing. How to use our cooking guides.
