Perfect — ¾-inch (about 2 cm) ribeye cooks fast, even from frozen. Here’s the adjusted air-fryer method so it doesn’t overcook.

==== ### ====
* 200°C / 400°F for 5 minutes

===== - Place steak in basket (no oil) =====
* Cook 4 minutes
* Flip, cook another 4 minutes

===== - Remove steak =====
* Pat dry
* Season with salt & pepper
* Light spray or brush of oil

===== |     |     |     | =====
| --- | --- | --- |
|     |     |     |
|     |     |     |
|     |     |     |

Flip once during this step.

===== - Rest 3–5 minutes =====
* Add butter or garlic if you like

==== - Do not skip resting — carryover cooking is real ====
* Watch closely after 8 minutes total
* If your air fryer runs hot, reduce by 1 minute

===== - After cooking, blast 1 minute at max temp or sear quickly in a hot pan =====
