Equipment

  • 5-quart or larger air fryer

Ingredients
  

  • ½ lb beef steak tips such as sirloin
  • 2 tbsp tallow or clarified butter for cooking
  • 1 clove garlic minced (optional for flexible carnivore)
  • Salt to taste

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the air fryer to 400°F.
  • Season the steak tips lightly with salt.
  • Cook the steak tips: Place them in the air fryer basket and cook for 6-8 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through for even cooking. For medium-rare, aim for an internal temperature of 130°F.
  • Prepare the garlic butter: While the steak tips cook, melt the tallow or clarified butter in a small saucepan. If using garlic, sauté minced garlic in the butter for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  • Serve: Drizzle the melted butter (or garlic butter) over the cooked steak tips and serve immediately.

Notes

Variations (Flexible Carnivore Diet):

  • Cheesy Steak Tips: Sprinkle shredded cheese over the steak tips before serving for a cheesy twist.
  • Spicy Steak Tips: Add cayenne pepper or chili flakes for a spicier version.
