Why Use an Air Fryer?

Air fryers have taken the UK by storm, and for good reason! They offer a healthier alternative to traditional frying using significantly less oil, while still delivering that fabulous crispy texture we all crave. Whether you’re a novice in the kitchen or a seasoned chef, the air fryer simplifies meal prep, reducing cooking time and hassle.

Ingredients

For the Garlic Butter Steak Bites:

• 500g steak (sirloin or ribeye works best), cut into bite-sized pieces
• 50g unsalted butter
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
• Salt and pepper to taste

For the Potatoes:

• 400g baby potatoes, halved
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tsp paprika
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Potatoes

1. Start by preheating your air fryer to 200°C (392°F) for about 5-10 minutes.
2. In a mixing bowl, toss the halved baby potatoes with olive oil, paprika, salt, and pepper until well coated.
3. Once the air fryer is preheated, place the potatoes in the basket in a single layer. Cook for around 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even cooking.

Step 2: Cook the Steak Bites

1. While the potatoes are cooking, season your steak pieces with salt and pepper.
2. In a small saucepan, melt the butter and sauté the minced garlic on low heat until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Be careful not to burn the garlic!
3. Once the potatoes are done, remove them from the air fryer and set them aside. Add the steak bites to the air fryer basket. Drizzle half of the garlic butter over the steak pieces.
4. Cook the steak bites at 200°C (392°F) for 8-10 minutes, depending on your desired level of doneness. Toss the steak bites halfway through and drizzle the remaining garlic butter during the last couple of minutes of cooking for added flavour.

Step 3: Serve and Enjoy!

1. Once both the potatoes and steak bites are cooked, plate them beautifully on a serving dish.
2. Drizzle with the leftover garlic butter from the pan (if any) and sprinkle with fresh parsley for a pop of colour.
3. Dive in and enjoy your Air Fryer Garlic Butter Steak Bites and Potatoes! They pair wonderfully with a fresh side salad or steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
