Cooked New York strip steak using Ninja Foodi Air Fryer

Many of my friends have owned an Air Fryer. After seeing their delicious cooking pictures day after day, I decided I wanted to join the Airt Frayer craze! What's better than eating fried food without having to worry about consuming too much oil?

Initially, I set my mind on Philips Air Fryer XL because that was what most of my friends have. When I went to check it out at Bed Bath and Beyond, they didn't have the Philips Air Fryer XL with a digital interface that I wanted. Although having disappointment, I saw the Ninja Foodi Air Fryer and started to look up the reviews on the internet. Besides air fries, it was also a pressure cooker, a steamer, etc. Since I wanted to get one and cooked some fried chicken that day, I went ahead and got the Ninja Foodi Air Fryer.

For more than a week, I have been using the Ninja Foodi to cook many things, and so far the result has been satisfying! I don't think it supposed to be good at cooking anything, so you probably have to try it out and figure out its strength. I love the chicken wings I cooked. I pressure cooked it before air crisped it to get the crispy outer layer. The chicken wings were juicy and delicious!

Last night, I tried using it for cooking New York strip steak. The steaks were from HEB and only $13 for 2.

Nothing fancy, I seasoned my steaks with salt and pepper, and some random seasoning I have.

After I warmed up my air fryer for 5 minutes, I put the metal rack and air crisped it for 10 minutes. I flipped the steaks after halfway through. When 10 minutes was up, I checked it with my meat meter and gave it another 3 minutes at 400F. As you can see, the steaks brown nicely, and the meat was still tender. I also air crisped some kales for 5 minutes while I let the steaks rest. The dinner was ready within 30 minutes, without a smoky kitchen or hard to clean pans!
