Juicy Air Fryer Steak (Perfect Every Time)

If you think you can’t cook a juicy, restaurant-style steak at home, think again. With an air fryer, you can enjoy tender, flavorful steak in just minutes — no grill, no mess, and no stress.

Ingredients

• 2 beef steaks (ribeye or sirloin work best)

• 1 tablespoon olive oil

• Salt (to taste)

• Black pepper (to taste)

• Garlic powder (optional)

• Fresh parsley (for garnish)

• Butter (optional, for serving)

Instructions

1. Prepare the steak
   Take the steaks out of the fridge and let them rest at room temperature for about 15 minutes. This helps them cook evenly.

2. Season generously
   Pat the steaks dry with paper towels. Rub both sides with olive oil, then season with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.

3. Preheat the air fryer
   Preheat your air fryer to 200°C / 400°F for 3–5 minutes.

4. Cook the steak
   Place the steaks in the air fryer basket without overlapping.

   • Cook for 7–9 minutes for medium-rare

   • Cook for 9–11 minutes for medium
     Flip halfway through cooking.

5. Rest and serve
   Remove the steaks and let them rest for 5 minutes. Add a small piece of butter on top and sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving.

Tips for the Best Steak

• Don’t overcrowd the air fryer basket.

• Always let the steak rest after cooking to keep it juicy.

• Adjust cooking time based on steak thickness.

Final Result

Crispy on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside — this air fryer steak is perfect for a quick dinner or a special meal without the hassle.
