Air Fryer Steak Bites

Air frying steak bites is hands down the best way to cook steak. There are so many perks to using the air fryer. For starters there’s less mess. When cooking steak on the stove you usually have to turn on the fan because it’s a bit of a huge smokey process. And the stove top (as well as yourself) is usually coated in a layer of grease splatter by the time you are done cooking. Plus as much as I love mine, using a cast iron skillet is heavy and not exactly fun to clean. Roasting these in the oven is always a bit of a gamble on whether or not you’ll get that charred outside before you dry them out on the inside. But air frying is absolute culinary genius! The mess is contained within the air fryer. The clean up is easy. There is no lingering smoke to deal with at all. And the air fryer delivers exquisitely browned crispy outsides and tender, juicy, melt in your mouth insides. And it’s successful every single time! Plus it cooks in half the time. Have I convinced you try these yet? It is so yummy, so fast and super easy. Your family is going to love these steak bites!

Ingredients for Garlic Steak Bites

Super simple ingredients! Look for fresh bright red meat in the meat department. This means it is fresh. You also want good marbling. The better the marbling the better the flavor, and the more tender your bites will be. If you don’t have fresh herbs, use half the quantity in dry herbs.

Steak: New York or Sirloin cut into cubes. Olive Oil: Just to coat the steak to help the seasoning stick. Salt and Pepper: To taste. Italian Seasoning: I love this combination of flavors. Garlic: Mince the garlic so it’ll stay on the steak.

Perfect Herb Butter Ingredients

Butter: Melt the butter Thyme: Fresh Rosemary and Parsley: Freshly minced

Making Air Fryer Garlic Steak Bites

This couldn’t be any easier, just mix and cook and steak is done if half the time of grilling. You’ll still achieve that beautiful charbroil on the outside with tender juicy steak on the inside.

Tips for the Best Air Fryer Steak Bites

You are going to absolutely love these steak bites. They are quick and all ready to eat. No need to cut up the kids steak while yours gets cold. It’s already done!

Seasoning: This recipe is super versatile. Use your favorite steak rub or seasonings to liven it up. Marinade: Marinate the steak in my World’s Best Steak Marinade for intense flavor. Size: Cut the steak in equal sized pieces, I don’t like to go over an inch. They cook faster and it’s the perfect size for my family. Steak: You will want to use a good cut of beef. Look for steak that a nice balance of marbling throughout. It shouldn’t be riddled with fat, but shouldn’t be super lean either. The marbling will break down during the cooking process leaving the meat tender and juicy. New York, Sirloin or Rib Eye steaks are some of the best. Don’t over crowd: Because the air fryer uses circulating air to cook, you need to be sure you don’t overcrowd the steak. If you need to cook it in batches it’s okay. Steak is best if you let it rest for a bit before eating anyway. It allows the meat to absorb and redistribute the juices. YUM!

How do I know when my Steak is Done?

That all depends on how well done you enjoy your steak. Insert a thermometer into the biggest cut of steak to check the temperature. Remember steak will continue to cook for about a 1 or 2 once removed from the fryer.
