Ingredients

8 lamb chops (about 1 inch thick)

2 tablespoons olive oil

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped (or ½ teaspoon dried)

1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped (or ½ teaspoon dried)

½ teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon black pepper

Juice of 1 lemon

Zest of 1 lemon

Instructions

Marinate the Lamb: In a large bowl, whisk together olive oil, minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, salt, pepper, lemon juice, and lemon zest.

Coat the Chops: Add the lamb chops to the marinade, ensuring they are well-coated. Cover and let marinate for at least 30 minutes (or up to overnight in the refrigerator for stronger flavor).

Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 390°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.

Arrange the Chops: Place the marinated lamb chops in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Make sure not to overcrowd; you may need to do this in batches.

Cook the Chops: Air fry the lamb chops for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they reach your desired doneness (145°F for medium-rare, 160°F for medium).

Rest and Serve: Remove the lamb chops from the air fryer and let them rest for 5 minutes. Serve warm with your favorite side dishes.
