Optional Add-Ons & Extras:
Extra brown gravy for a richer taste
Cracked black pepper for added depth
Garlic powder or onion powder for extra flavor

Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Air Fryer
Set your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) and let it preheat for about 3-5 minutes. Preheating ensures even heating and a better texture.
Step 2: Prepare the Frozen Meal
Remove the meal from the box and plastic film, keeping the food inside its tray.
Separate the Salisbury steak from the sides to ensure even cooking. Place the steak directly in the air fryer basket.
Cover the sides with foil to prevent them from overcooking.
Step 3: Air Fry the Salisbury Steak & Sides
Salisbury Steak Only: Cook at 375°F for 12-14 minutes, flipping halfway through for even heating.
Sides: After 6 minutes of cooking, place the sides in the air fryer on a small air fryer-safe dish and continue cooking for another 4-6 minutes until fully heated.
Gravy: Stir the gravy halfway through cooking to keep it smooth and prevent drying out.
Step 4: Serve & Enjoy
Carefully remove the Salisbury steak and sides from the air fryer and let them cool for 1-2 minutes before eating.
Serve immediately with extra brown gravy, mashed potatoes, and your favorite seasonings.
