Ingredients

Garlic Butter

  • 1 stick unsalted butter (softened)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped)
  • 2 teaspoons garlic (minced)
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Steak

  • 2 8 oz ribeye steaks (about 1-inch thick)
  • 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper

Instructions

  1. Prepare Garlic Butter: In a bowl, combine the softened unsalted butter with chopped fresh parsley, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, and kosher salt. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated. Transfer the mixture onto parchment paper and shape it into a log. Refrigerate until ready to use.
  2. Bring Steaks to Room Temperature: Remove the ribeye steaks from the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for 20 minutes. This step ensures even cooking throughout the steak.
  3. Season Steaks: Season both sides of the steaks evenly with kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper to enhance flavor.
  4. Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. This ensures the steaks cook properly and develop a good crust.
  5. Cook the Steaks: Place the seasoned steaks in the preheated air fryer basket. Cook for 10-12 minutes, flipping the steaks halfway through the cooking time to ensure even browning and doneness.
  6. Rest and Serve: Once cooked, remove the steaks from the air fryer and let them rest for 5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute. Top each steak with a generous slice of the prepared garlic butter before serving for a rich, savory finish.

Notes

  • Resting the steaks is crucial for juicy results.
  • Adjust air fryer cooking time based on steak thickness and preferred doneness.
  • The garlic butter can be prepared ahead of time and stored refrigerated.
  • Letting the steak reach room temperature before cooking ensures even cooking.
  • Use a meat thermometer if desired: 130°F for medium-rare, 140°F for medium.
