Instructions
- In a medium bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, honey, and Sriracha until well blended. Set this mixture aside.
- In a separate large bowl, combine the vegetable oil, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
- Add the beef cubes to the seasoned oil mixture, ensuring each piece is evenly coated.
- Arrange the beef pieces in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Depending on the capacity of your air fryer, you may need to cook in several batches.
- Cook the beef in the air fryer at 400°F for 11-12 minutes, turning them halfway through, until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F.
- Transfer the cooked beef to a large bowl, then add ½ cup of the prepared sauce, tossing to coat the beef thoroughly.
- To prepare the bowls, place 1 cup of warm rice in each of the 4 bowls. Add ½ cup of sliced red cabbage, ¼ cup of julienned carrots, and ¼ cup of sliced cucumbers to each bowl.
- Top each bowl with equal portions of avocado slices and the sauced beef.
- Finish by drizzling the remaining sauce over the bowls and sprinkle with chopped cilantro and sesame seeds. Serve promptly.
Notes
- Adjust the Sriracha in the sauce to your desired level of spiciness.
- Coat the beef cubes thoroughly in the seasoned oil mixture before air frying for even flavor.
- Personalize the bowl with your favorite vegetables or add-ons for a unique touch.
