Method
 

Preparation
  1. Prepare the Marinade: In a medium bowl, combine all marinade ingredients and toss to coat evenly.
  2. Chill the Mixture: Cover and chill the mixture for at least 1 hour, ideally overnight for best flavors.
  3. Bring to Room Temperature: Remove the mixture from the fridge and let it sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before cooking.
  4. Drain Marinade: Discard the marinade to avoid excess liquid during cooking.
Cooking
  1. Preheat Air Fryer: Set the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Cook the Mixture: Spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray, add the marinated mixture, and cook for 5 minutes. Shake and cook for an additional 3 to 4 minutes until the steak is tender and slightly charred.
Serving
  1. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve over cooked white rice if desired.

Notes

For best results, marinate longer if possible, avoid overcrowding the air fryer, and check for doneness based on the thickness of the steak cubes.
