        Step 1: Prepare the Potatoes<\/h3>\n
          \n
        1. Wash and cut the baby potatoes into evenly sized pieces.<\/li>\n
        2. Place them in a bowl and toss with olive oil, salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and dried herbs.<\/li>\n
        3. Preheat the air fryer to 200\u00b0C (400\u00b0F)<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
        4. Add the potatoes to the air fryer basket in a single layer.<\/li>\n
        5. Cook for 15\u201318 minutes<\/strong>, shaking the basket halfway through, until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy on the outside and tender inside.<\/li>\n
        6. Remove and set aside.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          Step 2: Prepare the Steak Bites<\/h3>\n
            \n
          1. Cut the steak into bite-sized cubes, about 1\u20131\u00bd inches.<\/li>\n
          2. Pat the steak dry with paper towels to ensure a good sear.<\/li>\n
          3. Toss the steak bites with olive oil, salt, black pepper, paprika, and onion powder.<\/li>\n
          4. Add the steak bites to the air fryer basket (do not overcrowd).<\/li>\n

            • 7 minutes for medium<\/li>\n
            • 8 minutes for well-done<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

              Step 3: Make the Garlic Butter<\/h3>\n
                \n
              1. While the steak is cooking, melt the butter in a small pan over low heat.<\/li>\n
              2. Add the minced garlic and cook for 30\u201360 seconds<\/strong>, just until fragrant.<\/li>\n
              3. Remove from heat and stir in chopped parsley and lemon juice.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                Combine Everything<\/h2>\n
                  \n
                1. Return the cooked potatoes to the air fryer basket.<\/li>\n
                2. Add the steak bites on top.<\/li>\n
                3. Drizzle the garlic butter evenly over the steak and potatoes.<\/li>\n
                4. Toss gently to coat everything.<\/li>\n
                5. Air fry for 2 additional minutes<\/strong> to bring all flavors together.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
