Equipment
- Air Fryer
- Skillet
- Whisk
- Meat Thermometer
Ingredients
Ingredients
- 600 g Steak ribeye, sirloin, or filet mignon
- 3 cloves Garlic minced
- 200 ml Cream or half-and-half for lighter version
- 50 g Butter for sauce
- to taste Salt
- to taste Pepper
- 30 ml Stock or water if needed to loosen sauce
- to taste Fresh herbs like thyme or parsley
- 50 g Parmesan cheese optional, grated
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to a high setting, then season the steak generously with salt and pepper. Place the steak in a single layer and air fry, flipping it once, until it reaches your desired doneness.
- While the steak is cooking, make the creamy garlic sauce. Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat and soften the minced garlic until fragrant.
- Add the cream to the skillet and simmer gently while whisking until the sauce thickens slightly. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Finish the sauce by whisking in any optional cheese and fresh herbs. If the sauce is too thick, loosen it with a splash of stock or water.
- Let the steak rest briefly before slicing it to keep the juices intact. Serve slices drizzled with the creamy garlic sauce.
Notes
Tip: For an extra rich sauce, whisk in a touch of grated cheese near the end. Make sure not to boil the sauce too hard to keep it smooth.
