If you are looking for a simple, low carb meal that is so satisfying and easy to prepare, this is a meal you should try! The mashed squash is so buttery, even with less butter. I prefer them over mash potatoes even if I were not going for low carb. Once I tried steaks in the air fryer, I will not prepare them any other way. I’m not a grill master, and these turn out perfectly every time!
INGREDIENTS
2 6-8 oz Filet Mignon
Steak seasoning ~ I used Kinder’s The Blend, (salt, pepper, garlic)
2 Acorn squash
1 TBS Butter
3 C Brussel Sprouts
Olive Oil
S/P to taste
DIRECTIONS
Mashed Buttery Squash
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cut Acorn squash in half and spoon out the seeds and pulp in the middle. Generously s/p. In baking dish add ¼ inch of water. Turn squash upside down into baking dish and bake for 50 min.
Scoop out the done squash and add a TBS butter while its still warm.
Crispy Brussel Sprouts
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Cut heads off of Brussel sprouts and cut them in half. In mixing bowl at Brussel sprouts, salt/pepper and olive oil and toss til evenly coated. Add parchment paper to a sheet pan. Spread Brussel sprouts out evenly on the pan. Bake for approximately 30 minutes tossing them twice.
Air Fried Filet Mignon
Generously add steak seasoning to both sides of the steaks. Preheat air fryer to 400 degrees. Add steaks and cook to desired doneness. I prefer medium rare so for a 1 ½ thick steak was approximately 14 minutes. I did flip the steaks half way through, although probably not necessary in an air fryer.
