1. Prep the Steaks
Pat steaks dry with paper towels.
Rub both sides with olive oil.
Season generously with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika (if using).

Preheat air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 3–5 minutes.
3. Cook the Steak
Place steaks in the air fryer basket — don’t overlap.
Air fry at 400°F:
8–10 minutes for medium-rare
10–12 minutes for medium
Flip halfway through cook time.
4. Make Garlic Butter
While steaks cook, mix softened butter with garlic, parsley, salt, and optional lemon juice.
Set aside or chill briefly.
5. Rest and Butter
Let steaks rest for 5 minutes after cooking.
Top with a generous dollop of garlic butter while resting so it melts into the steak.
