Bring the steak to room temperature for about 20 minutes.
Rub the olive oil over the steak, then season with Montreal steak seasoning.
Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees F. Then air fry the steak for 10 to 11 minutes for medium rare, flipping the steak halfway through the cooking time.
Remove the steak from the air fryer and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing to let the juices redistribute through the meat.

Notes
Keep in mind that thicker steaks while take a little longer to cook and thinner steaks can cook faster. Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness.
Let the steak come to room temperature for about 20 minutes before cooking so it cooks more evenly.
Pat the steak dry before adding oil and seasoning. It helps the outside get that nice crispy edge.
Flip the steak halfway through the cooking time.
Reheat leftovers in a preheated air fryer at 350 degrees F for about 3-5 minutes.
