Tender and flavorful lamb chops, quickly cooked in the air fryer, perfect for a special dinner.
🥘 Ingredients
lamb chops — 3 pieces
tablespoon olive oil — 1 (15 ml)
tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped — 1 (3 g)
garlic clove, minced — 1
teaspoon salt — 1/4 (1.5 g)
teaspoon black pepper — 1/4 (0.5 g)
👨🍳 Steps
1Preheat the Ninja Foodi Air Fryer to 200°C (400°F) on Air Crisp setting for 5 minutes.
2In a large bowl, mix olive oil, chopped thyme, minced garlic, salt, and pepper.
3Add lamb chops to the bowl and toss well to coat evenly with the marinade.
4Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the chops marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes (optional but recommended for more intense flavor).
5Place lamb chops in a single layer in the air fryer basket, without overlapping.
6Cook on Air Crisp setting at 200°C (400°F) for 7–8 minutes.
7Remove chops and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving – this allows juices to redistribute and meat to stay tender.
8Serve with your favorite sides: steamed broccoli, mashed potatoes, rice, or sautéed vegetables.
