Ingredients

Meat

• 1 1/2 lbs Sirloin steak, cut into bite-size pieces
• 2 tsp Montreal steak seasoning

Produce

• 1 tsp Garlic powder
• 1 tbsp Fresh parsley, finely chopped

Condiments

• 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce

Baking & Spices

• 1 tsp Dried Italian seasoning

Dairy

• 2 tbsp Unsalted butter, melted

How to Make Air Fryer Steak Bites

1. Preparation: Start by preheating your air fryer to 400°F (200°C). This ensures that your steak bites cook evenly and get that delightful crust!
2. Season the Steak: In a mixing bowl, toss the steak bites with the Montreal steak seasoning, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning until well-coated.
3. Add Worcestershire Sauce: Drizzle the Worcestershire sauce over the seasoned steak bites, mixing well to ensure each piece is flavorful.
4. Cook: Place the steak bites in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Air fry for about 7-10 minutes, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. Shake the basket halfway through cooking to ensure even browning.
5. Finish with Butter and Parsley: Once cooked, toss the steak bites in melted butter and sprinkle with fresh parsley for an added touch of freshness.
6. Serve Immediately: Enjoy your steak bites hot from the air fryer! They are fantastic on their own or paired with a dipping sauce.

Helpful Tips

• Single Layer: Avoid overcrowding the air fryer basket. Cooking the steak bites in a single layer ensures they get that nice, crispy edge.
• Preheat Your Air Fryer: This step is crucial for achieving the best texture.
• Timing Is Key: Depending on how you like your steak, adjust the cooking time. Less time for rarer bites, more for well-done.

Substitutions/Variations

• Spice it Up: Feel free to add a sprinkle of red chili flakes if you like a bit of heat.
• Herb Changes: Not a fan of parsley? Try chives or cilantro for a different taste.
• Cheese Please: Add some grated Parmesan in the last minute of cooking for a cheesy twist.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q 1 : Can I use a different type of steak? A: Absolutely! While sirloin is my go-to for this recipe, feel free to use ribeye or even chuck steak for a richer flavor.

Q 2 : How do I know when the steak bites are done? A: The best way to check is to use a meat thermometer. For medium-rare, aim for 135°F (57°C); medium, 145°F (63°C).

Storage Instructions

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the air fryer at 350°F (175°C) until warmed through.
