Air Fryer Peppercorn Steak-Birdy
betterthanbouillon.com/recipes/air-fryer-peppercorn-steak
A zesty aioli complements this savory, bistro-style steak encrusted with black peppercorns.
4 strip steaks (each about 5 to 6 oz)
¼ cup olive oil
1 Tbsp + 2 tsp Better Than Bouillon® Roasted Beef Base
1 Tbsp crushed mixed peppercorns
AIOLI
¾ cup mayonnaise
1 Tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 Tbsp Dijon mustard
3 cloves garlic, minced
3 Tbsp finely chopped fresh chives, divided
Pat steaks dry with paper towel.
In large bowl, whisk together oil, Roasted Beef Base and peppercorns. Toss steaks with oil mixture. Marinate in refrigerator for 15 minutes.
Preheat air fryer to 400°F according to manufacturer’s instructions. In batches and discarding marinade, arrange steaks in greased basket of air fryer and cook, turning once, for 3 to 4 minutes or until instant-read thermometer registers 130°F to 135°F when inserted into thickest part of steak for medium-rare. (Alternatively, cook to preferred doneness.) Let rest, covered loosely with foil, for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
Meanwhile, in small bowl, stir together mayonnaise, lemon juice, mustard, garlic and 2 tbsp chives until blended. Transfer to small serving bowl.
Serve steaks with aioli. Garnish with remaining chives.
TIP: Substitute mixed peppercorns with crushed black peppercorns. Crush peppercorns in pepper grinder set to coarse grind or in mortar and pestle, or use the bottom of a small skillet or saucepan to crush them on a cutting board.
NOTE: I haven't had a chance to try this but after my experience air frying steak I think this would be good. Perhaps just the marinade with the bouillon without the peppercorns would be good for a simpler steak? I will use the timing from my other AF steak recipe since it worked well for me. Birdy
