There’s no limit to the amazing foods you can make in your air fryer. If you didn’t agree with me before, I think this delicious ribeye will make you a believer.

How do I cook steak in the air fryer?

My favorite method is a something I’ve done in the oven, but found much quicker completed in the air fryer…a technique called reverse searing.
This essentially means baking your steak until it has reached the desired internal temperature (remember–color is not an accurate indicator of internal temperature), then quickly searing the steak to finish it off.
Make sure you have a meat thermometer to keep track of the doneness of your steak. There are some models, like the one I used, that allow you to monitor the internal temperature while it’s still cooking.

According to how you like your steak cooked, the temperatures are:
Rare – 120°- 130°F
Medium Rare – 130°-140°F
Medium – 140°-150°F
Well Done – 160°-170°F

Cooking times will vary based on your individual air fryer as well as the doneness you prefer.
Once your steak has reached the desired internal temperature, it’s ready for a very quick sear to give it that delicious and crispy outer crust.

Add four tablespoons of butter and any additional seasonings to a cast iron skillet. Get it as hot as you can stand it (you will probably want to turn on the vent above your stove if you have one) and add your steak for a quick sear of 30 seconds on each side.
The result? Perfection.
