Prepping Your Ribeye Steak:
1. Season Generously: Enhance the steak’s natural flavors with a generous coating of salt, pepper, and your preferred spices.
2. Let It Rest: Allow the steak to rest at room temperature for 30-60 minutes before cooking. This helps the steak relax and cook more evenly.
3. Preheat the Air Fryer: Set your Power XL Air Fryer to 400°F (200°C) for optimal searing and cooking.
Cooking Times for Ribeye Steak:
Thickness of Steak | Cook Time
—|—|
1 inch | 8-10 minutes
1.5 inches | 10-12 minutes
2 inches | 12-14 minutes
Note: These are approximate cooking times and may vary slightly based on the size and thickness of your steak.
Cooking Instructions:
1. Place the Steak in the Basket: Place the seasoned steak in the air fryer basket.
2. Air Fry: Cook the steak for the recommended time, flipping it halfway through.
3. Rest Before Slicing: Once the steak has finished cooking, remove it from the air fryer and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and juicy steak.
Tips for Perfect Ribeye Steak:
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure the steak reaches your desired doneness.
- If you prefer a thicker crust, cook the steak at 425°F (220°C) for the first 5 minutes.
- For a medium-rare steak, cook to an internal temperature of 135°F (57°C).
- For a medium steak, cook to an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
- For a medium-well steak, cook to an internal temperature of 155°F (68°C).
Troubleshooting Common Issues:
- Tough Steak: This can occur if the steak is overcooked or not allowed to rest before slicing.
- Dry Steak: Ensure the steak is seasoned generously and cooked to the proper internal temperature.
- Burnt Steak: Reduce the cooking temperature or cook the steak for a shorter amount of time.
Serving Suggestions:
Pair your perfectly cooked ribeye steak with your favorite sides, such as:
- Roasted vegetables
- Mashed potatoes
- Asparagus
- Béarnaise sauce
- Chimichurri sauce
