AIR FRYER STEAK WITH GARLIC-HERB BUTTER

Steps:

• Allow the steak to sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before cooking.
• Preheat a 3.5-quart air fryer to 400 degrees F. Season the steak on both sides with a generous pinch of salt and several grinds of black pepper. Place the steak in the center of the air fryer basket and cook until desired doneness, about 10 minutes for medium-rare, 12 minutes for medium and 14 minutes for medium-well. Transfer the steak to a cutting board and allow to rest, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, mash together the butter, parsley, chives, garlic and crushed red pepper in a small bowl until combined. Slice the steak against the grain into 1/4-inch-thick pieces. Top with the garlic-herb butter.

AIR-FRYER GARLIC-BUTTER STEAK

Steps:

• Preheat air fryer to 400°. Sprinkle steak with salt and pepper. Place steak on tray in air-fryer basket. Cook until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°), 8-10 minutes, turning halfway through cooking., Meanwhile, combine butter, parsley, garlic and soy sauce. Serve with steak.

AIR-FRYER STEAK FRITES

Steps:

• Preheat a 6-quart air fryer to 400˚ F. Season the steaks with salt and pepper. Spray the air-fryer basket and grate insert with cooking spray and place the steaks in the basket. Cook the steaks until browned, 4 to 6 minutes; flip and cook 4 to 6 more minutes for medium rare. Transfer the steaks to a cutting board and tent with foil to keep warm. Wipe the air-fryer basket clean with a paper towel.
• Reheat the air fryer to 400˚ F. Add the French fries to the air-fryer basket and cook until golden and crisp, 10 to 12 minutes. Season with salt.
• Meanwhile, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, mustard, thyme and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a large bowl. Add the frisée and toss well to coat.
• Slice the steaks and divide among plates along with the fries and salad. Sprinkle the steak and salad with chives and serve with ketchup and mayonnaise.

WHISKEY GLAZED FLAT IRON STEAKS AND GRILLED POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat a grill on medium-high heat. Whisk together the whiskey, brown sugar, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper until the sugar and salt are dissolved. Stir in 2 tablespoons of the oil and the garlic. Add the steaks, turn a few times to coat with the marinade and let stand at room temperature for 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, quarter each potato lengthwise to form wedges and put in a medium pot. Cover with cold water to cover by 1-inch and add salt until the water tastes like sea water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, reduce the heat to medium and simmer until tender (but not falling apart), about 15 minutes. Drain well. Toss with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
• Remove the steaks from the marinade and pat dry with paper towels. Pour the marinade into a small pot and bring to a boil. Boil for 2 to 3 minutes until slightly reduced, making sure the sugar does not burn, to make a glaze and sauce for the steak.
• Grill the steaks until an internal temperature on an instant-read thermometer reads about 130 degrees F, 3 to 4 minutes per side, brushing with the boiled marinade several times in the last few minutes of grilling time. (If you are cooking the filet mignon steaks, you will need to increase this time to 8 to 10 minutes per side to account for the thicker cut). Transfer to a large plate to rest for 5 to 10 minutes. While the steaks grill, add the potatoes to the grill and grill until well-marked and crispy, turning to grill all sides, about 5 minutes total. Transfer the potato wedges to a bowl.
• Toss the grilled potatoes with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, chives, vinegar and salt and pepper to taste. Remove the garlic cloves from the remaining glaze and serve drizzled over the steaks with the potatoes on the side.
