Air Fryer Ribeye Steak Recipe

Ingredients

• 1 ribeye steak (about 1 inch thick)
• Salt, to taste
• Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
• 1 tbsp olive oil (optional)
• Optional: garlic powder, onion powder, or herbs for extra flavor

Instructions

1. Preheat the Air Fryer:
   • Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.
2. Prepare the Steak:
   • Pat the ribeye steak dry with paper towels. This helps achieve a good sear.
   • Rub the steak with olive oil (if using) and season generously with salt, pepper, and any additional seasonings.
3. Air Fry the Steak:
   • Place the steak in the air fryer basket. Make sure it’s not overcrowded; if necessary, cook in batches.
   • Cook for about 10-12 minutes for medium-rare, flipping halfway through. Adjust the time for your desired doneness:
     • Medium-rare: 130-135°F (54-57°C)
     • Medium: 135-145°F (57-63°C)
4. Check for Doneness:
   • Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the steak.
5. Rest the Steak:
   • Remove the steak from the air fryer and let it rest for about 5-10 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute.
6. Slice and Serve:
   • Slice against the grain and serve with your favorite sides.

Enjoy!
