Air Fryer, New York Strip Steak with Lemon Herb Butter (KETO Friendly)

Description This is such an easy KETO meal. It’s made from New York Strip Steak, which is typically fattier than filet mignon or rib eye steaks, but the air fryer does a great job, keeping the juiciness of the steak in. I topped it off with a lemon and herb butter, that I made and kept in the refrigerator. It’s an easy way to serve steak, and it’s KETO friendly (both the steak and the butter) ________________________________________ Lemon Butter: • 2 tablespoons room temperature butter • 1 teaspoon lemon juice • 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest • 1 teaspoon diced chives ________________________________________ Instructions 1. The first thing I do when making steak (I got this hint from one of Bobby Flay’s shows) let the meat rest at room temperature for AT LEAST 30 minutes. 2. Start by preheating the air fryer, steak is one of the few recipes, that I preheat the air fryer for. But the meat will come out better, so turn the air fryer oven’/basket on for 5 minutes at 400 degrees F. 3. Then rub the olive oil or butter all over the steak, and season with salt and pepper. 4. Set the steaks in the air fryer for 6 minutes, then flip and air fry for another 6 minutes. 5. Again, per Bobby Flay, let the steak rest for at least 5 minutes, before cutting. To make the butter, simply mix the butter, lemon zest, lemon juice and chives in a small mixing bowl. You can either serve that way. Or I placed the butter into a plastic wrap, and rolled it up, to look like a log, place it in the freezer, and then cut a few pieces off for each serving.
