Steak and Shrimp Kabobs in the Air Fryer: The Ultimate Guide to a Perfect Surf-and-Turf Meal

These Steak and Shrimp Kabobs in the Air Fryer are a quick and flavorful surf-and-turf meal that’s perfect for busy weeknights or entertaining guests. Juicy steak bites and buttery shrimp cook evenly in the air fryer, giving you a restaurant-quality dish with minimal effort and cleanup.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound boneless sirloin steak

  • 1 pound raw jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 2 tablespoons steak seasoning

Instructions

  • Pat the steak dry with paper towels and cut it into 1-inch pieces. Pat the shrimp dry as well.

  • In a large bowl, combine the steak, shrimp, and olive oil. Toss until evenly coated.

  • Thread the steak and shrimp onto the skewers, alternating pieces if desired.

  • Place the kabobs in the air fryer basket in a single layer.

  • Cook at 400°F (205°C) for 3 minutes per side, turning once, until the shrimp are opaque and cooked through and the steak reaches your preferred doneness.

  • Serve immediately and enjoy.

Notes

  • Soak wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning.

  • Cut steak evenly so it cooks at the same rate as the shrimp.

  • Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket—cook in batches if necessary.

  • Check doneness early, as air fryers can vary in cooking speed.

  • Add vegetables like bell peppers or onions to the skewers for extra color and flavor.
