This air fryer steak with cowboy butter is all about big flavor with minimal effort. A thick-cut New York strip cooks to juicy perfection in just minutes, while a zesty cowboy butter — spiked with garlic, lemon, Dijon, and herbs — melts over the top for an instant flavor upgrade. It’s a steakhouse-worthy dinner made easy, no grill required.
