This is such an easy recipe if you have a rack of lamb chops and are ready to get your air fryer on. You can make lamb chops on the grill, cast iron skillet, or even an air fryer. Once you try these lamb chops you will never make them any other way. Save money and make them at home. The best part? It takes less than 20 minutes to make.

This Rack of Lamb in Air Fryer needs to brush the olive oil mixture on each side of the rack of lamb.

Preheat the air fryer to 360°F.

Add the rack of lamb, fat side up, into your air fryer. Air fry the lamb chops for 15-20 minutes for medium done lamb.

Check the internal temperature of the lamb. Cook an additional 2-3 minute intervals if you prefer more well done. Keep checking the internal temperature with a meat thermometer.

Remove the lamb from the air fryer and cover with aluminum foil. Let it rest for 10 minutes before serving.  

Substitutions

Lamb: Make sure that your butcher frenches the rack of lamb. I love air frying the rack of lamb whole instead of in separate chops because it comes out juicier.

Herbs: You can use a combination of rosemary, thyme, sage, marjoram, or oregano.

Olive oil: I think olive oil is essential for this dressing, although you could use sunflower oil instead.

Garlic: There is no option to using garlic in a jar, you should get the freshest garlic heads the grocery store has got.

Variations

Cooking is a chance to be creative! Have fun with it and feel free to make your own variation.

  • Spicy - add chili pepper flakes into the olive oil mixture.
  • Deluxe - Try making these lamb chops on the grill.

Check out this Thai Lamb Larb for a delicious recipe.

Equipment

Equipment can have a big impact on how a recipe turns out. Stone bakeware takes longer to heat up than metal pans, and also retain heat for longer, which could make the recipe more watery, or burnt on the outsides.

I love using my Caraway pots, pans and baking sheets for best quality. Get yourself a discount by clicking here!

Storage

This will be good in the refrigerator for 2-3 days, or can be frozen for up to three months.

Top tip

Make sure to use a meat thermometer when cooking in intervals for 2 minutes.
