Garlic Steak & Potato Foil Packets
Ingredients:
2 pounds lean sirloin steak, trimmed and cut into 2-inch chunks
1 pound baby yellow potatoes, quartered or halved to your liking
1 tablespoon minced garlic (adjust to taste)
2 teaspoons Italian seasoning (or a mix of dried oregano, thyme, and parsley)
1 teaspoon onion powder
3 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
Instructions:
Preheat the Air Fryer:
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
Mix & Marinate:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sirloin steak chunks, baby yellow potatoes, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, onion powder, olive oil, salt, and freshly ground pepper.
Gently toss the ingredients until they are well-coated with the seasonings.
Prepare the Foil Packets:
Cut large pieces of aluminum foil (about 12×18 inches each).
Divide the steak and potato mixture evenly among the foil pieces.
Fold the sides of the foil up and over the steak and potatoes, sealing the packets tightly so that no steam escapes.
Cook the Packets:
Place the foil packets in the preheated air fryer basket. You may need to cook in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
Cook at 400°F (200°C) for 15-20 minutes, or until the steak is cooked to your desired doneness and the potatoes are tender. Shake the basket or flip the packets halfway through the cooking time for even cooking.
Serve:
Carefully open the foil packets (beware of the hot steam) and serve immediately.
