Sometimes the best things in life are simple, like my Casa M Cattle Drive Air Fryer Steak Bites. These are absolutely to die for – the best steak bites ever! You can’t just have one! Slightly spicy, crispy on the outside and melts in your mouth when you bite into it – all that steak goodness is accented by the Cattle Drive Seasoning. They are so addictive!
What makes this steak bite recipe easy? Very few ingredients, fast cooking time and Cattle Drive Beef Seasoning by Casa M Spice Co®!
Why use Cattle Drive Casa M Spice®?
All of Casa M Spices are delicious and they make cooking easy. Plus they are low in sodium, 80% less, with no perceivable loss in flavor. Cattle Drive is a great black pepper replacement too!
Do I need to use an air fryer for this recipe?
The air fryer it’s the easiest and tastiest for sure! With my Breville Smart Air Oven it takes about 7 minutes and no turning is needed. Every air fryer is different so test the first batch and watch it carefully. But you could also do them in the broiler. Preheat the broiler for about 5 minutes first, then broil about 5 minutes, flip over and broil again until desired doneness – but watch them carefully so they don’t burn. A cast iron skillet (paid link) will also work. Be sure to heat the pan until it’s super hot and use a little oil. Fry for a few minutes, flip over and cook until done.
How to make Casa M Cattle Drive Steak Bites in pictures:
Cut the steak into bite size pieces about 1 inch cubes. Try to make them all the same size if possible so they cook evenly. Preheat air fryer to 400°.
Sprinkle meat with kosher salt (paid link) and 1 tablespoon of the Cattle Drive Seasoning. Allow to rest while you are doing the butter mixture.
In a large bowl, microwave butter until melted. Add remaining 1/2 tablespoon of Casa M Cattle Drive Seasoning, Worcestershire sauce and minced garlic. Stir well.
Add meat and stir until completely coated.
Layer seasoned meat in the air fryer basket. (If you’re using the Breville Smart Oven Air (paid link), put a pan underneath). Air fry for 7 minutes. For other air fryers, test the first batch and check at 4 minutes first. Stir, air fry until desired doneness.
Allow meat to rest for a few minutes before serving. These steak bites are great over lettuce greens, add some cherry tomatoes and a nice dressing like my Skinny Blue Cheese Dressing.
Food Prep Tip
Make a double batch of the steak. Cool. Place 1 serving of steak in a vacuum sealed bag (paid link) and freeze. Whenever you want a quick salad, remove bag from freezer, microwave for about 30 seconds, then place the meat on a baking sheet and broil a few minutes until hot. Super easy!
