1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

2. Air fry the potatoes at 400°F for 10–12 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through.
3. Meanwhile, season the steak cubes with remaining Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
4. Add the steak to the air fryer with the potatoes and cook for 8 more minutes, shaking once halfway through.
5. Melt the butter and stir in the minced garlic, cooking just until fragrant.

Notes
Cut steak and potatoes evenly to ensure consistent cooking.
Don’t overcrowd the air fryer—work in batches if needed for better texture.
Let steak rest a couple of minutes before serving to keep juices locked in.
