Air Fryer Lamb Chops
Temp 400°F
Time 8–14 minutes
Action Flip halfway
Tip: Bring to room temperature 20-30 minutes before cooking for even results
Prep Notes
Pat dry. Brush with olive oil, season with salt, pepper, garlic, and rosemary. Use loin or rib chops about 1 inch thick.
Doneness check: Internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare, then rest at least 3 minutes — the published safe minimum. Medium is 160°F (71°C) and well done is 170°F (77°C). Some cooks pull lamb earlier for a pinker center, for example 135°F; that is a doneness preference below the safe minimum, not a food-safety recommendation.
More Tips
- Rest 5 minutes after cooking — internal temp continues to rise
