Air Fryer Ribeye Steak
Air Fryer Ribeye Steak is made with 2 ribeye steaks, olive oil, butter, garlic; air fry at 400°F for 14 minutes to serve 2. 450 calories per serving.
Ingredients
Steps
- 1
Remove steaks from fridge 30 minutes before cooking. Pat very dry.
- 2
Rub with olive oil. Season generously with coarse salt and pepper on all sides.
- 3
Air fry at 400°F for 10-14 minutes for medium-rare (130°F internal), flipping at the halfway point.
- 4
Top with butter, smashed garlic, and thyme. Let rest 5-8 minutes.
- 5
Slice against the grain. Finish with flaky sea salt.
Tip: The most important things: room temp steak, bone-dry surface, generous seasoning, and a proper rest. Pull steaks 5°F below your target temp — they continue cooking during rest. Use an instant-read thermometer, not time alone.
Why Air Fry This?
- ⏱️Ready in 14 minutes vs ~25 in a conventional oven — no preheating needed.
- 🍖Circulating hot air renders fat and seals in juices for a crispier outside and tender inside.
- ⚡Uses significantly less energy than heating a full-size oven for a single batch.
