Air Fryer Crispy Asian Beef
Ingredients
1 tablespoon grapeseed oil
2 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
1/2 cup light beer
1/2 cup tamari sauce
1/3 cup coconut sugar
1 teaspoon ginger powder
1 pound beef flank steak, sliced into strips
2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
sesame seeds
1/2 cup filtered water
Directions
In a large nonstick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon grapeseed oil over medium-high heat. Add minced garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, for about 1 minute. Add the beer, tamari sauce, coconut sugar, ginger powder, and water. Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, for a further 3-4 minutes.
Cover the skillet with a lid and set it aside. Keep warm.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rice vinegar and sesame oil. Whisk well. Add beef strips and allow to marinate for about 10 minutes.
Preheat your air fryer to 375 F (190 C) for 5 minutes. Remove marinated beef from the marinade and coat it with all-purpose flour.
Arrange marinated meat in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook for 10 minutes, flipping halfway through.
Remove fried beef strips from the fryer and transfer them to the skillet with reserved sauce. Mix well and bring the skillet to a low simmer. Simmer, stirring occasionally, for 3-4 minutes.
Remove the beef mixture from the skillet and transfer to a serving plate. Sprinkle with sesame seeds. Serve hot.
