  • VARIATIONS: Use any favorite herb combination; Short on time? Skip the marinade and just sprinkle with salt and pepper; See the ingredient suggestions and variation tips in the post for more suggestions. 
  • TOP TIP: Remove lamb chops from the air fryer 3 to 5 degrees before your desired doneness is reached. Cover and let rest 5 minutes. As the chops sit the temperature will continue to increase. 
  • SERVING SUGGESTIONS: Garnish with parsley or chives. Serve with over mashed or roasted vegetables. Greek Salad and Air Fryer Asparagus are delicious with this recipe.
