Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 2 steaks I used 2 9oz ribeyes.
  • 1/2 pound raw shrimp peeled and deveined
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil

Homemade Steak Rub (You can use your favorite store bought rub if preferred)

Homemade Shrimp Seasoning (You can use your favorite store bought rub if preferred)

Instructions
 

  • Remove the steaks from the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes to 1 hour before cooking.
  • Heat a cast iron or stainless steel skillet on medium-high heat with the olive oil until hot.
  • Pat the steaks dry to remove excess moisture.
  • Sprinkle the spices onto both sides of the steaks and rub them into the meat. Ensure the steaks are evenly coated. Add additional spices if necessary.
  • Coat the shrimp with the spices and ensure the shrimp are evenly coated. Add additional spices if necessary.
  • Add the steaks to the hot skillet. Sear both sides of the steak for 3-4 minutes. Ensure the edges are seared. Cook time will vary depending on your desired doneness.
    Use a meat thermometer and cook to 125° F for rare, 135° F for medium-rare, 145° F for medium, 155° F for medium-well, and 160° F for well done.
    Remove the steak and allow it to rest while you cook the shrimp.
  • Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook, flipping to cook each side, for 3-5 minutes or until it is pink and opaque.
  • Cool before serving.

Notes

Air Fryer Steak

  • Pat the steak dry and season both sides with lemon pepper seasoning, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper to taste.
  • Cook for 5 minutes on 370 degrees. After 5 minutes, open the air fryer and test the internal temperature. Cook for an additional 2-7 minutes.
    Cook time will vary depending on your desired doneness. Use a meat thermometer and cook to 125° F for rare, 135° F for medium-rare, 145° F for medium, 155° F for medium-well, and 160° F for well done.
  • Drizzle the steak in the lemon butter sauce. Allow the steak to rest for at least 3 minutes before slicing or consuming.

Air Fryer Shrimp

  • Air fry the shrimp at 400 degrees for 6-8 minutes or until it is pink and opaque.
Recipe Notes
  • Feel free to trim the fat from your steaks or shape them up to your liking.
  • Allow the steak to come to room temperature (about 30 minutes) prior to cooking. This will allow the steak to cook at an even and consistent temperature. If you add it to a hot pan while cold, the muscle fibers will tense up and result in tough steak.
  • Allow the meat to rest for at least 5-10 minutes before slicing or consuming. If you slice into the steak too soon, that will cause the inside moisture within the steak to spill out onto the plate, leaving a drier, less flavorful steak.
