Ingredients
Scale
Steak and Marinade
- 2 ribeye steaks (about 1 inch thick)
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Prepare the Marinade: In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, balsamic vinegar, minced garlic, onion powder, dried rosemary, black pepper, and salt until well combined.
- Marinate the Steaks: Place the ribeye steaks in a large resealable bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Seal or cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to 8 hours for deeper flavor infusion.
- Preheat the Air Fryer: About 10 minutes before cooking, preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for roughly 5 minutes to ensure even cooking.
- Prepare Steaks for Cooking: Remove steaks from the marinade and allow them to come to room temperature while the air fryer heats up to promote even cooking throughout.
- Air Fry the Steaks: Place the steaks in the air fryer basket without overlapping. Cook for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through. Use a meat thermometer to check doneness: 130°F for medium-rare, 140°F for medium.
- Rest and Serve: Remove steaks from the air fryer and let them rest for 5 minutes. This step helps the juices redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak. Slice and serve.
Notes
- For richer flavor, brush melted butter over steaks before air frying.
- Letting steaks rest after cooking helps retain juices and improves tenderness.
- Air fryer cooking times may vary depending on model and steak thickness; always check internal temperature with a meat thermometer for best results.
