Steps:
- Preheat air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C), if recommended by manufacturer.

- Lightly brush cooking surface of air fryer basket basket with some of the melted butter.
- Pour remaining melted butter over steak bites and vegetables and stir to combine. Spread out steak bites and vegetables in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
- Air-fry in the preheated device until steak has reached desired doneness, about 7 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read between 130 and 140 degrees F (54 and 60 degrees C) for medium-rare. For medium doneness, the temperature should read 140 to 150 degrees F (60 to 65 degrees C). If you prefer your steak more done, add additional cooking time.

Tips:
- For a crispy coating, use panko breadcrumbs instead of regular breadcrumbs. Panko breadcrumbs are lighter and crispier, and they will help the onion bites stay crispy even after they have been reheated.
- If you don't have an air fryer, you can bake the onion bites in a preheated oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 15-20 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
- To make the onion bites even more flavorful, add some chopped fresh herbs, such as parsley, cilantro, or chives, to the breadcrumb mixture.
- Serve the onion bites with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ketchup, ranch dressing, or barbecue sauce.
Conclusion:
Air fryer onion bites are a quick and easy appetizer or snack that are perfect for any occasion. They are crispy, flavorful, and addictive. Plus, they are a healthier alternative to traditional fried onion rings. So next time you are looking for a tasty and satisfying snack, give air fryer onion bites a try.
