Ingredients

1 pound top sirloin steak or filets patted dry and cut into 1 to 1 ½ inch cubes
1 Tablespoon olive oil
1 Tablespoon steak seasoning
8 ounces mushrooms cut in half or thirds

Instructions

Toss cubes of steak with olive oil and steak seasoning.
Pour beef cubes and mushrooms into the air fryer basket and gently shake to combine. Set the air fryer temperature to 390°F and the timer for 9 minutes. You don't need to preheat the air fryer.
After 3 minutes, pause and shake the basket. Repeat every 2 minutes until the beef cubes reach the desired doneness. Mine finished in 7 minutes. The time will vary by machine and based on the thickness of the cubes.
Use an instant-read thermometer to check the center of a large steak cube. The USDA recommends cooking whole cuts of beef to 145°F, followed by a 3-minute rest. The temperature may rise slightly during resting.
Allow the meat to rest a couple of minutes before serving and then enjoy!

Notes

Storage: Refrigerate leftover steak bites in an airtight container for 3–4 days.

Microwave: Place steak bites on a microwave-safe plate and cover with a damp paper towel. Heat at 50% power in 30–60 second intervals until warmed through.

Air Fryer: Reheat steak bites at 350°F for 2–3 minutes or until heated through. Avoid overcooking to keep the steak tender.

To cook on the stovetop: Follow the directions for preparing the beef cubes and mushrooms. Heat 1 Tablespoon olive oil in a skillet (preferably cast iron) over high heat, and then add beef cubes and mushrooms. Allow beef cubes to cook, untouched on each side, for several minutes until they reach the desired doneness.
