    • Make sure your steak is at least 1 inch thick and 1.5 pounds so it browns nicely before the inside overcooks.
    • Brushing with oil helps to form a crust.  Don’t skip this step!
    • You can use the suggested seasoning or you can use whatever you like.
    • Use a meat thermometer for accuracy

    That’s all there is to it!

    You can use sirloin, t-bone, ribeye, or New York strip.  The size of the steak is what’s important if you want it to get a brown crust.

    INGREDIENTS

    • 1 ½ Pound Top Sirloin Steak
    • 1 Tablespoon avocado oil (Click here for my favorite brand on Amazon)
    • ½ teaspoon Garlic powder
    • 1 teaspoon Kosher salt
    • pepper to taste

    EQUIPMENT

    • Air Fryer (Here's the air fryer I like best on Amazon)

    INSTRUCTIONS

    • Pre-heat air fryer to 400F for 5 minutes. Lay steak on a cutting board and begin with brushing ½ tablespoon of avocado oil on one side of steak. Season with ½ teaspoon kosher salt and ¼ teaspoon garlic powder. Flip and repeat on the other side of the steak.
    • Cook in already preheated air fryer for 10 minutes on each side for rare steak. For a rare steak internal temp is 130F, medium rare = 135F, medium = 140F, medium well = 150F, well done = 160F

    JENNIFER'S TIPS

    • Make sure your steak is at least 1 inch thick and 1.5 pounds so it browns nicely before the inside overcooks.
    • Brushing with oil helps to form a crust.  Don't skip this step!
    • You can use the suggested seasoning or you can use whatever you like.
    • Nutrition is for 4 ounces of cooked sirloin steak
