Steak Bites are small pieces of steak well seasoned and cooked quickly in the Air Fryer. Cooking the steak in an Air Fryer is the BEST! It takes minimal effort with an even easier clean-up. 

The high heat of the Air Fryer produces that browned and charred outer layer that we all love. And it leaves the inside juicy. It is a fantastic way to cook your steak without drying it out.

First, cover the steak in melted butter and the seasonings, then cook. You will not miss the mess of a frying pan with all the fat rendering and splatters it creates. 

Making these Steak Bites in your Air Fryer will quickly become your favorite way to enjoy steak!
