Frequently asked questions:
Yes! It’s so easy to cook lamb chops in the air fryer. It just takes 7 minutes at 390F.
I have found that lamb chops cook best at 390F when cooked in the air fryer.
Lamb chops are rare at an internal temperature of 120F, medium rare at 125F, medium at 130F, and well done at 145F or higher. Lamb chops taste best when cooked between rare and medium. If cooked longer they take on a gamey flavour and become more tough and chewy.
