Air fryer ribeye steak with herbed butter is a delicious and easy recipe that combines the tenderness of ribeye steak with the flavors of aromatic herbs. Here’s a step-by-step guide to preparing this mouthwatering dish:
Ingredients:
- 2 ribeye steaks (1-1.5 inches thick)
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped
Instructions:
- Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.
- While the air fryer is preheating, season the ribeye steaks generously with salt and pepper on both sides. Let them sit at room temperature for about 15-20 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate.
- In a small bowl, combine the softened butter, minced garlic, chopped parsley, thyme, and rosemary. Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated.
- Take the seasoned steaks and spread the herbed butter mixture evenly on both sides, ensuring that the butter covers the entire surface.
- Once the air fryer is preheated, place the steaks in the air fryer basket. Make sure they are not overcrowded to ensure even cooking. You may need to cook them in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
- Cook the steaks in the air fryer for about 8-10 minutes for medium-rare doneness, flipping them halfway through the cooking time. Adjust the cooking time according to your desired level of doneness.
- Once the steaks are cooked to your liking, remove them from the air fryer and let them rest for a few minutes before serving. This resting period allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more flavorful and tender steak.
- Serve the air fryer ribeye steaks with herbed butter immediately, either whole or sliced. You can garnish with additional fresh herbs if desired.
Enjoy your juicy and flavorful air fryer ribeye steaks with herbed butter! They pair well with a variety of sides like roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad.
