Notes

  • Allow your steak to rest for at least 10 minutes after removing from the air fryer for best results.
  • Slice against the grain for the most tender steak.
  • Measure using a meat thermometer to cook to your perfect doneness. 4 minutes on each side will produce medium rare filet mignon (so long as they are the same size as the recipe calls for).
