Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 T-bone steak
- 2 teaspoons (10 milliliters) olive oil
- 1 tablespoon (15 grams) butter
Seasoning Ingredients:
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon fine table salt
- ½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 clove garlic (minced)
- 1 pinch fine table salt
Instructions
- Craft a zesty compound butter by blending softened butter with finely chopped garlic and a pinch of salt, then form into a compact cylindrical shape using parchment paper and chill in the refrigerator to firm up.
- Activate the air fryer and preheat to 390°F (200°C), allowing the basket to heat thoroughly for approximately 5 minutes to ensure optimal cooking conditions.
- Create a robust seasoning mixture by whisking together oil, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and freshly ground black pepper in a small mixing bowl.
- Meticulously pat the t-bone steak dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture, then massage the prepared seasoning blend comprehensively across all surfaces of the meat.
- Carefully position the seasoned steak inside the preheated air fryer basket, ensuring it sits in a single layer without overcrowding.
- Cook the steak at 390°F (200°C), flipping midway through the cooking process, for approximately 6 minutes per side to achieve a perfect medium-rare doneness.
- Utilize a reliable meat thermometer to verify the internal temperature, confirming the steak has reached the desired level of doneness.
- Remove the steak from the air fryer and loosely tent with aluminum foil, allowing it to rest and redistribute internal juices for 5-7 minutes.
- Complete the dish by crowning the rested steak with the chilled garlic butter, which will melt luxuriously over the warm meat, enhancing its rich flavor profile.
Notes
- Ensure steak is at room temperature before cooking to promote even heat distribution and prevent tough meat.
- Pat the steak completely dry with paper towels to achieve a perfect sear and crispy exterior in the air fryer.
- Customize seasoning by experimenting with different herb blends like rosemary, thyme, or smoked paprika for added flavor complexity.
- For leaner protein option, choose grass-fed or trimmed T-bone st
