Ribeye, never needs an introduction!
My airfryer faves are my crispy meat bars, ribeye steak, and ribs!
Classic pan-seared steak is undeniably delicious, but I’ve found it takes practice & patience to get it right every time. Which let’s be honest, I don’t have. 😂
Cooking steak in the oven is easier, but it doesn’t always achieve the crisp exterior we love. I’m a texture girl, I love my meats with a crispy exterior. I tend to always overcook my steaks especially in the oven.
That’s where the air fryer comes in. Seriously wish I would’ve bought one years ago!
2 Tips for Making Steak In an Air Fryer:
1. Let your air fryer heat up for at least 10 minutes before adding the steaks. This ensures that crispy brown exterior similar to searing. I used to skip this step & found my steaks ended up grey & overcooked by the time the outside brown.
2. Flip the steaks halfway through cooking. Helps them cook evenly. After five minutes of cooking, flip.
Directions:
* Set an air fryer to 400°F and let heat for 10 minutes
* Season to taste 1-2 ribeye steaks (depends on how large your air fryer basket is) I use salt and occasional cracked pepper. You can also use herb butter. A little bit of butter adds just the right touch of flavor.
* Air fry, flipping halfway through, 11 to 13 minutes total for medium-rare.
I use an Instant 6qt airfryer.
