Ingredients

Steak
1.5 lbs sirloin or ribeye, cut into 1-inch cubes
1 tbsp olive oil
Seasoning
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp smoked paprika
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
Garlic Butter
2 tbsp butter, melted
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
1 tsp fresh thyme leaves

Equipment

  • Instant-Read Meat Thermometer
  • Air Fryer Parchment Liners

Steps

  1. 1

    Cut steak into 1-inch cubes and pat dry. Toss with olive oil and all seasonings.

  2. 2

    Arrange in a single layer in the basket — don't overcrowd. Air fry at 400°F for 4 minutes.

  3. 3

    Shake the basket and cook 3-4 more minutes for medium-rare (130°F) or 5-6 more for medium (140°F).

  4. 4

    Melt butter with garlic, parsley, and thyme. Toss hot steak bites in the garlic herb butter.

  5. 5

    Serve immediately — steak bites are best piping hot.

💡

Tip: Cut all pieces the same size for even cooking. Don't crowd the basket or the steak steams instead of searing. Sirloin is the best value; ribeye gives the most flavor.
