Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound of steak tips (sirloin or ribeye)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • Fresh herbs for garnish (optional, such as parsley or thyme)

Instructions

  1. Gather all your ingredients.
  2. In a medium-sized bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, black pepper, and Worcestershire sauce.
  3. Whisk the mixture together until well combined.
  4. Place the steak tips in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish.
  5. Pour the marinade over the steak tips, ensuring they are well coated.
  6. Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap.
  7. Let the steak tips marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes (2-4 hours for enhanced flavor).
  8. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) and lightly spray the basket with cooking spray.
  9. After marinating, remove the steak tips from the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes.
  10. Place the marinated steak tips in the air fryer basket in a single layer, avoiding overcrowding.
  11. Cook for 8-10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through. Check for desired doneness:
  12. Once cooked, remove from the air fryer and let rest for 5 minutes.
  13. Slice the steak tips against the grain into bite-sized pieces.
  14. Arrange on a serving platter and sprinkle with fresh herbs if desired.
  15. Serve with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, salad, or crispy air-fried potatoes.

Notes

  • Choose sirloin or ribeye for the best results, but flank steak or tenderloin can also be used.
  • Marinating is crucial for flavor and tenderness.
  • Monitor cooking time closely, as air fryers can vary in temperature.
  • For a crustier exterior, increase the temperature to 425°F (220°C) for the last few minutes of cooking.
  • Feel free to experiment with different marinades and seasonings.
