Air Fryer Garlic Butter Steak Bites and Potatoes
Ingredients:
For the Steak Bites:
- 1 lb sirloin steak (or any steak of your choice), cut into bite-sized cubes
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika (optional)
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tablespoon butter, melted
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
For the Potatoes:
- 4 medium russet or baby potatoes, diced into small cubes
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions:
1. Preheat the air fryer:
- Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for 3-5 minutes.
2. Prepare the potatoes:
- In a bowl, toss the diced potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper until well-coated.
- Transfer the potatoes to the air fryer basket and cook for about 15-18 minutes, shaking halfway through, until crispy and golden brown.
3. Prepare the steak bites:
- While the potatoes are cooking, season the steak bites with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika (if using), salt, and pepper.
- After the potatoes have cooked for about 15 minutes, carefully remove them from the air fryer basket and set them aside.
- Place the seasoned steak bites in the air fryer basket in a single layer. You may need to cook in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
4. Cook the steak bites:
- Air fry the steak bites at 400°F (200°C) for about 7-10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until they are browned and cooked to your desired level of doneness. For medium-rare, aim for 7 minutes, and for medium, cook closer to 10 minutes.
5. Garlic butter sauce:
- While the steak bites are cooking, melt the butter in a small skillet or microwave. Add the minced garlic to the melted butter and cook for about 1 minute, just until fragrant. Set aside.
6. Combine and serve:
- Once the steak bites are done, pour the garlic butter over the steak bites and toss them to coat evenly.
- Serve the steak bites alongside the crispy potatoes. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
These Air Fryer Garlic Butter Steak Bites and Potatoes are perfectly cooked, bursting with flavor, and made with minimal effort. The garlic butter elevates both the steak and potatoes, making this dish a crowd-pleaser! Enjoy! 🥩🥔🍽️
