Tips
  • Do not stack the lamb chops in the air fryer.
  • Flip the lamb chops halfway so that it cooks evenly.
  • Use any favorite seasoning of choice.
  • Remove the lamb from the air fryer when the temperature registers about 5C/41F than your desired doneness, the meat continues to cook as it rests.
How to tell when lamb is cooked?
Your best kitchen appliance when cooking any type of meat is an instant thermometer. This will ensure you cook your meat right every time. As a rule of thumb, the internal temperature of cooked lamb is 60-65C / 149F for medium-rare, 65-70C / 158F for medium, and 70C/158F for medium-well done.  You can also do the finger test but I highly recommend using an instant thermometer as you won't need to second guess the result.
