  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp smoked paprika
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • ½ tsp Italian seasoning (optional)

For the Potatoes:

  • 1 lb (450 g) baby potatoes, halved
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp paprika

For the Garlic Butter Sauce:

  • 3 tbsp butter, melted
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
  • ½ tsp red pepper flakes (optional, for heat)

Directions

Step 1: Prepare the Potatoes

  1. In a large bowl, toss the halved potatoes with olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
  2. Place them in the air fryer basket and cook at 400°F (200°C) for 10 minutes, shaking halfway through.

Step 2: Season the Steak Bites

  1. While the potatoes cook, toss the steak cubes in a bowl with olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, smoked paprika, onion powder, and Italian seasoning.

Step 3: Air Fry the Steak and Potatoes

  1. After 10 minutes, add the seasoned steak bites to the air fryer with the potatoes.
  2. Cook at 400°F (200°C) for 6-8 minutes, shaking halfway through, until the steak reaches your desired doneness:
    • Medium-Rare: 130-135°F (54-57°C)
    • Medium: 140-145°F (60-63°C)
    • Medium-Well: 150-155°F (65-68°C)

Step 4: Make the Garlic Butter Sauce

  1. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
  2. Add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  3. Stir in the chopped parsley, then remove from heat.

Step 5: Toss and Serve

  1. Transfer the steak bites and potatoes to a bowl and drizzle with garlic butter sauce. Toss to coat evenly.
  2. Serve immediately, garnished with extra parsley.

Notes

  • Best steak choices: Sirloin, ribeye, or New York strip provide the best tenderness.
  • Make it spicier: Add extra red pepper flakes or a drizzle of hot sauce.
  • Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat in the air fryer at 350°F (175°C) for 3-5 minutes.
