# Ingredients Required:
→ Steak
01 -
Black pepper, as much as you'd like
02 -
Salt, as needed
03 -
1 tbsp canola oil
04 -
2 striploin steaks, each about an inch thick
→ Garlic Butter
05 -
1 tsp chopped fresh parsley
06 -
1 clove garlic, minced super fine
07 -
2 tbsp salted butter, nice and soft
# Guide to Cooking:
01 -
Pull the steaks from the air fryer, put them on a plate, and let them sit for about 5 to 10 minutes. Slap on a scoop of the garlic butter and dig in.
02 -
While the steaks are cooking, toss the soft butter, minced garlic, and parsley in a small bowl and smoosh them together.
03 -
Pop the steaks in the air fryer basket in one layer. Cook ’em for 10 minutes if you like medium-rare, 12 for medium, and 14 if you want it medium-well. Go by how cooked you like it.
04 -
Massage the steaks with canola oil, then sprinkle them all over with salt and pepper. Make sure they’re well-coated.
05 -
Turn on your air fryer to 400°F. Let it warm up for about 5 to 10 minutes before you do anything else.
06 -
Let the steak sit on the counter for 10 to 15 minutes so it loses the chill. If you want, cut off any extra fat now.
# Extra Suggestions:
01 -
Change up the cook time if your steaks are thicker or thinner, or if you like them more or less done.
02 -
Stick a meat thermometer into the steak to check the inside—it really helps you nail the doneness you want.
03 -
Mix in a bit of fresh rosemary or thyme if you want to bump up the flavor of the garlic butter.
