Ingredients
Scale
Steak Bites
- 1 ½ lbs. sirloin steak (or your favorite cut of steak), cut into 1-inch pieces
- ½ Tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Garlic Butter Sauce
- 4 Tablespoons salted butter
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- ½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- ¼ teaspoon paprika
- 1 Tablespoon freshly chopped parsley (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare Steak Bites: Preheat your air fryer to 400°F. Cut the steak into 1-inch pieces. In a large bowl, drizzle the steak bites with olive oil and season them with salt and pepper. Toss well to evenly coat the meat.
- Air Fry the Steak Bites: Arrange the steak bites in a single layer inside the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not overcrowded. Air fry for 4 to 6 minutes, depending on your preferred doneness. There is no need to flip the steak bites during cooking.
- Make Garlic Butter Sauce: While the steak cooks, melt the salted butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in Worcestershire sauce and paprika.
- Toss Steak Bites in Sauce: Add the cooked steak bites from the air fryer into the skillet with the garlic butter sauce. Stir thoroughly so each piece is coated and cook together for about one minute to meld the flavors.
- Serve and Garnish: Remove from heat, sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley if using, and serve the steak bites immediately while hot and flavorful. Enjoy your delicious meal!
Notes
- You can use other cuts of steak like ribeye or flank steak if preferred.
- Adjust the air frying time based on your steak thickness and desired level of doneness.
- For extra flavor, marinate the steak bites before cooking.
- Serve with steamed vegetables, a salad, or your favorite dipping sauce for a complete meal.
- Make sure not to overcrowd the air fryer basket for even cooking.
