Method
Preheat your air fryer to 200°C.
Mix together all Cajun seasoning ingredients.
Toss the steak strips with half the seasoning and half the olive oil.
Add the rice, peppers, onion, remaining seasoning, and remaining olive oil to a foil tray or heatproof dish.
Stir thoroughly until evenly coated.
Air fry the rice mixture at 190°C for 8–10 minutes, stirring halfway.
Add the seasoned steak strips to the air fryer basket in a single layer.
Air fry at 200°C for 5–7 minutes, shaking halfway, until browned around the edges.
Stir the steak through the dirty rice mixture.
Return everything to the air fryer for a final 2–3 minutes so the flavours combine properly.
Finish with spring onions, hot sauce, or jalapeños if using.
Serve immediately while still steaming hot.
