Oh yes—Air Fryer Steak Bites are quick, juicy, and perfect for a fast dinner or snack! Here’s a simple recipe:
Air Fryer Steak Bites
Serves: 2–3
Ingredients:
- 1 lb (450 g) steak (sirloin, ribeye, or flank), cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1–2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika (optional)
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Optional: chopped fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions:
- Prep the steak:
- Pat steak cubes dry with a paper towel (this helps them sear nicely).
- Toss steak with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
- Preheat air fryer:
- Set to 400°F (200°C) for 3–5 minutes.
- Cook the steak bites:
- Place steak cubes in the air fryer basket in a single layer (don’t overcrowd).
- Cook for 7–10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until steak is browned and cooked to your preferred doneness.
- Serve:
- Sprinkle with fresh parsley if desired.
- Serve as-is, over rice, or with roasted veggies.
💡 Tips:
- For extra flavor, toss the cooked steak bites with a little butter and minced garlic right after cooking.
- If your air fryer is small, cook in batches to ensure even browning.
- Use a meat thermometer if you want precise doneness: 130°F for medium-rare, 140°F for medium.
If you want, I can also give a garlic-butter-herb version that’s basically restaurant-level steak bites in under 15 minutes.
