What are steak tips?
Steak tips are cuts of steak that have been cut into bite size pieces. Steak tips tend to be made from sirloin, but they can be from any cut of meat.
How to make Air Fryer Steak Tips
First, you’ll need to marinate your steak tips. Combine your meat and your low carb marinade (I use Allegro) and allow to marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 24 hours. Next, preheat your air fryer at 390 degrees for 3 minutes. Add your steak tips in a single layer and cook for 3 minutes. Shake the basket (or rotate your steak) and cook for an additional minute to achieve medium rare steak. Add an additional minute of cook time until your preferred level of doneness has been achieved. To be sure your meat is at the temperature you prefer, use a meat thermometer. I have also put together this guide for what your meat should be reading at to be sure that you will be happy with how it is cooked:
- Medium rare: 135 degrees F or 57 degrees C
- Medium: 145 degrees F or 63 degrees C
- Medium well: 150 degrees F or 66 degrees C
- Well: 160 degrees F or 71 degrees C
Tips for the best Air Fryer Steak
- Don’t skip the marinade! It gives a great flavor to the meat
- Be sure that you cook your steak tips in the air fryer in a single layer, no overlapping
- Let your air fryer preheat before adding your meat
- Use a meat thermometer to be sure that you aren’t over or under cooking your steak
- Be generous with the salt and pepper!
What should I serve with steak tips?
I started with a salad. For a fun twist, try this Keto Salad Bowl! Next, you need some keto side dishes. Some of my favorites are Cheesy Roasted Asparagus, Cheddar Roasted Broccoli or Cheddar Garlic Keto Biscuits. If you’d like some more low carb bread recipes, try one of these 30+ Keto Bread Recipes! For dessert, we had Turtle Brownies. These Keto Cinnamon Twists are also seriously delicious! If you’re interested in a keto cocktail, give my Rosemary Gin Fizz or a Blackberry Bourbon Smash a try!
