I mean seriously, what can't an Air Fryer do? Well I am here to tell you, it CAN cook a RIBEYE PERFECTLY. Everyone has their opinions on how steak should be cook and if you've looked at the rest of my blog, you know I am a Grill Queen. However, if the grill is covered in ice and snow, I would not turn my head to this juicy with crispy edge Air Fried steak.
Air Fryer Used: Ninja Foodi 6.5qt, any air fryer can be used. Times & Temp may vary.
Time Needed: Depends on how you prefer your steak cooked, but allow at least 10 minutes extra to rest before slicing & serving.
Temperature Guide for Steak:
125°-130° F for Rare
130°-140° F for Medium-Rare
140°-150° F for Medium
150°-155° F for Medium-Well
160°+ F for Well-Done
Ingredients:
2 Ribeye Steaks
Bacon Grease ( or olive oil )
Salt
Pepper
Garlic
Crushed Red Pepper Flakes
Your Favorite Steak seasoning, optional.
Directions:
Before starting, I recommend seasoning your steak then letting it sit on the counter for 20-30 mins. Room temperature steak calls for a juicier finish.
If using a Ninja Foodi, set it to sear/saute on high and throw some bacon grease or drizzle some oil in the bottom of the pot. If you are using a different air fryer, simply use a hot pan on the stove top.
Sear your steak on both sides for 1-2 minutes each
Take steaks outs, put fryer basket in, and set to 390* . Let this preheat, you need a hot basket.
For my one inch steaks, it took about 8 minutes for a medium temperature. Check half way through and flip.
Once finished, top with a slice of butter & let rest for 8-10 minutes before slicing.
