Ingredients
Steak
- 4 sirloin steaks, half a pound each
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the Air Fryer: Set your air fryer to 200C (400F) and allow it to preheat for a few minutes to ensure even cooking.
- Prepare the Steaks: Rub each steak with olive oil, then season evenly with salt and pepper on both sides for enhanced flavor.
- Air Fry the Steaks: Place the steaks in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook for 10-12 minutes, flipping the steaks halfway through the cooking time to achieve even browning and doneness.
- Rest the Steaks: Remove the steaks from the air fryer and let them rest for 5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute, resulting in tender and juicy meat.
Notes
- Adjust cooking time based on steak thickness and preferred doneness.
- Use a meat thermometer to check internal temperature: 130°F for medium-rare, 140°F for medium.
- Letting the steak rest is crucial for juicy results.
- Can be paired with a side of vegetables or salad for a complete meal.
