Open in Pepper →Steak Dinner Without Heating Up The Kitchen
Steak used to mean a hot skillet, a smoky kitchen, and a pan to scrub. The air fryer gets you a browned crust in minutes, and you can stand there and chop a salad while it works.
Cooks on Pepper reach for these on the nights everybody gets home at a different time, or when one steak has to stretch across four plates as bites over rice.
Every recipe here is steak and not much else: garlic butter steak bites, teriyaki steak bites with peppers and onions, easy air fryer steak and fries, and air fryer steak with crispy potatoes.
Quick Tips
- 1
Pat the steak dry
Blot both sides with paper towels before oiling. Wet meat steams instead of browning in the first 4 or 5 minutes.
- 2
Preheat the basket
Run the air fryer empty at 400°F for 3 to 5 minutes so the steak starts searing the second it lands.
- 3
Cut cubes the same size
Aim for 1-inch pieces so every bite finishes at the same time, usually 7 to 10 minutes with a shake halfway.
- 4
Rest before you serve
Let steak sit 5 minutes off the heat so the juices stay in the meat instead of on the cutting board.
