Craving a juicy steak but forgot to thaw it? No problem! Your air fryer is here to rescue dinner. Cooking frozen steak in the air fryer is surprisingly easy and delivers fantastic results. Forget about long thawing times and complicated cooking methods.
This guide will walk you through the simple steps to achieve steakhouse-quality steak right from frozen. First, preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Season your frozen steak generously with your favorite spices – garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper work great. Place the steak in the air fryer basket, ensuring it's not overcrowded. Cook for approximately 12-16 minutes, flipping halfway through, depending on the thickness and desired doneness. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature; 130-135°F (54-57°C) for medium-rare. Let the steak rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing against the grain. Enjoy your perfectly cooked, air-fried frozen steak with your favorite sides!
