Ingredients

4 servings

4 pieces cubed steak (beef round sirloin) (16 ounces total)
3 large eggs (with 1 tablespoon water)
1 1/4 teaspoons salt
1 cup seasoned breadcrumbs*
olive oil spray
white rice and lime wedges (optional for serving)

Steps

Season the beef with salt on both sides.
Beat the eggs in a shallow bowl with water.
Dip the beef in the egg, then into the breadcrumbs, patting it with the back of a fork so it sticks.
Transfer to the air fryer basket in batches as needed.
Spray the top of the beef with oil then air fry 400F in a single layer 5 minutes on each side, spraying the other side when you flip. Serve with rice and lime wedges, if desired.
