Air fryer lamb chops are a restaurant-quality meal that's ready in minutes. The high heat sears the outside while keeping the inside tender and juicy. Find the full recipe and timing for perfectly cooked lamb chops here.
Ingredients
- 4 to 6 lamb loin chops or rib chops (1 to 1.5 inches thick)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper
- Optional: fresh rosemary, minced garlic, lemon zest
Steps
- 01Let the chops sit at room temperature for 15 to 20 minutes before cooking. Cold meat from the fridge cooks unevenly.
- 02Pat dry. Rub with oil and season generously.
- 03Ready for the air fryer.
- 04Let rest for 5 minutes after cooking. Lamb is best at medium-rare to medium (130 to 140°F).
Lamb chops are one of the fastest, most impressive things you can make in an air fryer. The fat cap renders and crisps while the meat stays pink and tender. Don't cook past medium (140°F). Well-done lamb chops taste like liver and disappointment.
