Air Fryer Asian Beef & Veggies in 8 minutes. Yes, 8 minutes - and it is a freezer friendly prep meal. The ultimate busy family meal! 

Air Fryer Asian Beef & Veggies-7

This Air Fryer Asian Beef and Veggie dish cooks in 8 minutes.

Yes, you heard me, 8 minutes. 

Now, if you prep it raw and make it a freezer meal, you come home, put the prepped (thawed) meal into your air fryer , and by the time you have changed into your comfy pants, and put a load of laundry in, dinner is done! 

Air Fryer Asian Beef & Veggies

One thing to tell you, though. I make this in my 5.6 quart (this one) and have to do this in 2 batches, so dinner is actually 16 minutes away for me. 

But.... leave out the veggies in this one, and it should all fit in one go! 

Air Fryer Asian Beef & Veggies-5

 

Does this come out crispy and fried?

No.

Is it delicious and awesome and done in 8 minutes?

YES.

Is this a saucy stir fry? No.

Think more like beef satay! 

Is this air fryer beef and veggies recipe a perfect weeknight dinner that is basically like eating takeout, but less calories, and a whole lot less salt?!

YES.

Air Fryer Asian Beef & Veggies-4

One more thing.

This recipe uses Chinese 5 spice. I love it, and I add it to many of my Asian inspired dishes.

You don't need it, but you should! I find it at regular ol' grocery stores with the spices, so you don't need to go on a hunt to find it, and you will be glad you have it for this dish, and my Beef and Broccoli recipe! 

Are you ready to have your take out fake out dinner done in 8 minutes?!

To Cook

  • Thaw zip bag in the fridge overnight.
