Classic Steak & Potatoes

Ingredients

  • 2 New York strip steaks, or your preferred cut
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp parsley
  • ½ tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp pepper
  • 4 russet potatoes

Instructions

Prep the Steak

  1. Season both sides of the steaks generously with salt and pepper.

Prep the Potatoes

  1. In a large mixing bowl, toss the cubed potatoes with olive oil, salt, pepper, paprika, and half of the chopped parsley until the potatoes are well-coated.

Air Fry the Potatoes

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).

  2. Place the seasoned cubed potatoes in the air fryer basket in a single layer, ensuring they are not overcrowded. You may need to cook them in batches.

  3. Air fry the potatoes for about 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket or tossing the potatoes halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

Cook the Steak

  1. While the potatoes are cooking, heat a skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat.

  2. Add a tablespoon of olive oil and allow it to get hot but not smoking.

  3. Place the seasoned steaks in the hot pan and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or longer if you prefer your steak more well-done.

  4. Use tongs to flip the steaks and ensure even cooking.

Rest the Steak

  1. Once the steaks reach your desired level of doneness, remove them from the pan and let them rest for a few minutes on a cutting board. This allows the juices to redistribute, keeping the steak tender and flavorful.

Serve

  1. Slice the rested steak into thin strips.

  2. Plate the steak alongside the air-fried cubed potatoes.

  3. Garnish with the remaining chopped parsley for a fresh burst of flavor.
