Ingredients

2 pounds top sirloin steak cut into 1-inch or bite-sized pieces
⅓ cup soy sauce
¼ cup balsamic vinegar white
½ cup olive oil
1 tablespoon garlic minced
¼ cup Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 tablespoon brown sugar

Instructions

Combine and whisk soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, olive oil, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, onion powder, and brown sugar in a mixing bowl.
Put the bite-size sirloin steak pieces into a resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the steak and mix well.
Seal the bag and place it in the refrigerator to marinate for at least 1 hour, though leaving it overnight will enhance the flavor even more.
Preheat your air fryer to 400° Fahrenheit.
Remove the marinated steak from the bag. Shake off any excess marinade to prevent smoking and ensure proper cooking.
Arrange the steak bites in a single layer inside the air fryer basket. Don't overcrowd the air fryer to allow for even cooking.
Cook the steak bites at 400° Fahrenheit for 8-10 minutes.
Halfway through the cooking time, flip the steak bites to ensure they brown evenly and cook thoroughly.
Once cooking is complete, remove the steak bites from the air fryer and let them rest for 1-2 minutes.

Notes

Air Fryer Times

The exact cooking time may vary depending on the desired level of doneness and the size of the steak bites.
Aim for an internal temperature of 135° Fahrenheit for a medium-rare finish, and for medium, aim for 145° Fahrenheit.

Resting The Meat

This resting period allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring each bite is moist and flavorful.
Serve the steak bites hot, garnished with chopped parsley or green onions to add a fresh, colorful touch to the dish.
