Air Fryer Rosemary Garlic Rack of Lamb
Traditionally, I enjoy sautéing lamb on the stove top. However, cooking a lamb rack in the air fryer is a must try and it's so easy! They will turn out both crispy and juicy; full of flavor by following the recipe below!
Ingredients
- 2 racks of lamb French style recommended
- 6 cloves garlic minced
- 2 tbsp fresh rosemary chopped
- 4 tbsp light olive oil
- salt
- pepper
Instructions
Brine Lamb Chops
- Take a bowl and fill it with water (about 4 cups or so)
- Add coarse salt to the water (about 1/4 - 1/3 cup)
- Place lamb chop loins into water brine solution and allow these to sit for 30 minutes. This will open up the pores of your meat for added flavor. Making a brine for your lamb before cooking will also remove some of the blood from the meat and the gamey smell/taste.
- After 30 minutes, remove your lamb chops from the brine solution and safely discard the water mixture. You are now ready to season and cook your lamb!
Marinade & Seasoning
- Salt and Pepper your lamb chop loins to your preference
- Mince garlic, and chop your fresh rosemary leaves
- Take a mortar and pestle or a bowl and spoon and combine: 6 cloves of garlic (I calculate one garlic clove per chop), 2 tbsp of fresh rosemary, and 3 tbsp of light olive oil. If you have a mortar, you can release the flavors of these ingredients by grinding them together, or you can simply mix this marinade together by using a bowl and a spoon. Spread this marinade mixture on both sides of your lamb, and allow it to rest at room temperature for 1 hour.
Air Fryer Rack of Lamb
- Take marinaded lamb rack and place inside of the air fryer basket and cook for 8-10 minutes on 400 F (204 C), flipping halfway.
