Ingredients
1 package Great Value Sirloin Philly Steak (frozen, raw and sliced)
Optional: sliced onions, peppers, seasoning (salt, pepper, garlic powder, or steak seasoning)
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Air Fryer
Set your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) and let it preheat for 2–3 minutes. This helps get a good sear on the meat.
Step 2: Prepare the Steak
Break apart the frozen steak slices and place them in the air fryer basket.
If adding veggies, toss them with the steak or place them in a separate section of the basket.
Optional: Lightly season the steak with your favorite spices.
Step 3: Air Fry to Perfection
Cook at 375°F (190°C) for 8–10 minutes, flipping or stirring halfway through to ensure even cooking.
Step 4: Check for Doneness
Steak should be browned and fully cooked through with slightly crispy edges. Veggies should be tender and lightly charred.
Step 5: Serve & Enjoy
Let cool for a minute, then serve as desired—in a sandwich, wrap, salad, or bowl.
