Air Fryer Lamb Chops

Ingredients

• 0.5 cups extra virgin olive oil
• 1 lemon , zested and juiced
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 0.5 teaspoons ground black pepper
• 2 cloves garlic
• 1 teaspoon fresh oregano
• 1 teaspoon fresh mint
• 2 teaspoons fresh rosemary
• 3 teaspoons fresh parsley
• 4 lambs loin chops , 1/2-inch-thick

Instructions

1. 1

   Combine olive oil, lemon zest and juice, salt, pepper, garlic, oregano, mint, rosemary, and parsley in a large resealable plastic bag. Gently squeeze contents inside the bag to mix.

2. 2

   Add lamb chops, squeeze out as much air as possible, reseal the bag, and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or up to 4 hours. Turn the bag after each hour, to marinate both sides of the chops.

3. 3

   When ready to cook, preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C), or according to manufacturer's instructions.

4. 4

   Add lamb chops to the air fryer in a single layer and air fry for 3 1/2 minutes.

5. 5

   Turn chops and continue to air fry an additional 3 minutes. Test for doneness with an instant read thermometer. 120 degrees F (49 degrees C) is rare, 130 degrees F (54 degrees C) is medium, and 145 degrees F (63 degrees C) is medium well. Add time in 1-minute increments to achieve desired doneness.

6. 6

   Tent with foil and allow to rest for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
