1 teaspoon kosher salt
16 -
½ teaspoon black pepper
17 -
1 cup chimichurri sauce, from the recipe above, divided
# Instructions:
01 -
In a large bowl, combine all the ingredients. Stir well to combine. Let the mixture rest at room temperature for 1–2 hours to allow the flavors to develop. Store the sauce in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Before using, stir to mix any separated ingredients.
02 -
Soak the wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning.
03 -
Season the steak cubes with salt and pepper. In a medium bowl, toss the steak cubes with ¼ cup chimichurri sauce, reserving the rest for serving.
04 -
Thread the seasoned steak cubes onto the skewers, leaving space between each piece for even cooking.
05 -
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F.
06 -
Arrange the steak skewers in a single layer in the basket of your air fryer. Air fry for 4–6 minutes, flipping halfway through, until steak is browned and cooked to your desired doneness. Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may need to work in batches.
07 -
Remove from the air fryer and brush with some of the reserved chimichurri sauce. Serve the rest of the sauce on the side for dipping. Enjoy warm!
