Ingredients
- 1 lb Sirloin steak, cut into cubes
- 2 medium Yukon Gold potatoes, cubed
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- Seasoning for air fryer steak bites and potatoes: 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp onion powder, salt, and pepper to taste
- Optional: Fresh herbs like rosemary or thyme for garnish
Instructions
1. Preparing steak for air frying: Start by cutting the sirloin steak into even, bite-sized cubes. This ensures they cook evenly.
2. How to cut potatoes for air frying: Cube your Yukon Gold potatoes to about the same size as the steak bites. This uniformity is key for even cooking.
3. Seasoning potatoes for air fryer: Toss the potatoes in a bowl with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, half of your seasoning mix, and any dietary-specific options like a keto-friendly mix if preferred. Ensure they’re well-coated.
4. For the steak, use the remaining olive oil and seasoning mix to coat the steak bites evenly. Feel free to add more garlic or onion powder, salt, and pepper according to taste.
5. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F. This is an essential step for ensuring your steak and potatoes cook evenly.
6. Air fryer potato cooking instructions: Place the seasoned potatoes in the air fryer basket. Cook for about 6 minutes, shaking halfway through for even crispiness.
7. After 6 minutes, add the steak bites on top of the potatoes. Set the air fryer for an additional 10 minutes. This method ensures cooking steak and potatoes together in the air fryer without overcooking the steak.
8. Air fryer steak bites cooking time varies slightly depending on your preferred doneness. Check at 10 minutes for medium-rare.
9. Optional: Once done, garnish with fresh herbs or a sprinkle of parmesan for extra flavor.
Notes
For the best results, don’t overcrowd the air fryer basket. Cooking in batches may be necessary depending on the size of your air fryer. This space allows for optimal air circulation, ensuring your steak bites and potatoes come out perfectly crispy and delicious.
