Craving a restaurant-quality ribeye without the restaurant price? Your air fryer is your secret weapon! But the key to a perfect, juicy ribeye lies in nailing the cooking time. So, how long to cook a 1-inch ribeye in the air fryer? Let's get sizzling!
For a 1-inch thick ribeye cooked to medium-rare (around 130-135°F), aim for approximately 8-10 minutes in a preheated air fryer set to 400°F (200°C). For medium (140-145°F), add a minute or two. Remember, these are just guidelines! The exact time will vary depending on your air fryer model and the starting temperature of your steak.
Always use a meat thermometer to ensure your ribeye reaches your desired level of doneness. Don't forget to let it rest for 5-10 minutes after cooking to allow the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak. Enjoy your perfectly cooked air fryer ribeye!
