Ingredients
  

  • 2 rib eye steaks (16 ounces each, about 1-1 ¼ thick)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon pepper
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • Meat thermometer
  • Tongs

Method
 

  1. Let the ribeye steaks rest at room temperature for 30 minutes. Preheat your air fryer to 400 degrees F.
  2. Brush both sides of the steaks with olive oil, then season generously with salt and pepper. Place the steaks in the air fryer basket, ensuring they don’t overlap.
  3. Cook for 10–12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the internal temperature reaches your desired level of doneness.
  4. Remove the steaks from the air fryer and let them rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing.

Notes

- For poultry, always ensure an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). For beef, cook to 130-135°F (54-57°C) for rare, 135-140°F (57-60°C) for medium-rare, and 140-145°F (60-63°C) for medium. I once pulled my steak too early, and it was too rare for my liking, so using a meat thermometer is crucial.
- Store leftover cooked ribeye in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Reheat gently in the air fryer at 300°F (150°C) for 5-7 minutes, or until warmed through, to avoid overcooking.
- For a flavorful variation, try adding garlic powder and onion powder to your seasoning mix, or a touch of smoked paprika for a subtle smoky note.
