Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 lb Sirloin Steak boneless, 1-inch thick, cut into bite-sized chunks
- 2 tsp Steak Seasoning click for my recipe
- 1 tbsp Avocado oil
- 3 tbsp Garlic Butter click for the recipe
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer for 5 minutes on 400 (turn it on without food inside since there’s no preheat setting - no need for the air fryer basket)
- Add the steak bites, oil and steak seasoning to a bowl. Toss to coat.
- Add the steak bites to the hot cooking pot
- Top the steak bites with the garlic butter.
- Air fry at 400 degrees for 6 min.
- Use a spoon to stir the bites in the garlic butter and air fry at 400 degrees for 2-4 more minutes.
Notes
- Cut evenly: Cut the steak into similar-sized pieces so they cook at about the same rate.
- Preheat first: A hot air fryer helps the steak bites develop better color.
- Use a single layer: Leave space around the steak bites and cook in batches if needed.
- Check early: Start checking around 8 minutes since smaller pieces can cook quickly.
- Swap the cut: Ribeye and New York strip also work.
- Change the finish: Use Cajun garlic butter for more heat or lemon garlic butter for a brighter flavor.
