Ninja Speedi Steak Recipe Tips

  • Choose the Right Steak: Select a high-quality steak, such as ribeye, sirloin, or filet mignon.
  • Bring the Steak to Room Temperature: Take the steak out of the refrigerator about 30 minutes before cooking to allow it to come to room temperature.
  • Season Well in Advance: Season your steak with salt and pepper at least 30 minutes before cooking.
  • Preheat the Ninja Foodi Speedi: Make sure to preheat the Ninja Foodi Speedi before placing the steak inside.
  • Use an Oil with a High Smoke Point: When searing the steak, use cooking oil with a high smoke point, such as vegetable or grapeseed.
  • Sear for a Perfect Crust: Sear the steak on all sides for a crispy crust and flavor. You can also add a knob of butter or a sprig of fresh herbs (like rosemary or thyme) during the searing process for added flavor.
  • Don’t Overcrowd the Basket or Tray: Ensure enough space between steaks in the Ninja Foodi so that they cook evenly.
  • Use a Meat Thermometer: The most reliable way to achieve your desired level of doneness is by using a meat thermometer.
  • Rest the Steak: After cooking, allow the steak to rest for a few minutes before slicing.
  • Experiment with Seasonings: Get creative with your seasonings. You can try different herbs, spices, or marinades to customize the flavor of your steak.
  • Keep an Eye on Cooking Time: Cooking times vary based on steak thickness and personal preferences.
  • Use the Air Crisp Function for Finishing: After searing, you can use the Air Crisp function to finish cooking the steak to your desired doneness.
  • Practice and Take Notes: The more you cook steak in your Ninja Foodi Speedi, the better you’ll become at gauging doneness and cooking times.
