Ingredients

Instructions

  • Season lamb chops with salt and pepper. Place chops in large ziplock bag.
  • Add the green seasoning to the lamb and massage well to ensure all the chops are coated. Refrigerate and and marinate at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
  • Preheat air fryer to 400 degrees F.
  • Add half the chops and cook for 8-10 minutes depending on thickness of the chops. Remove the chops and repeat for the remaining chops.
  • If you prefer a more browned, caramelized exterior broil in oven on top rack for 1 minutes.
  • While chops cook in air fryer prepare the chimichurri sauce. Add the pomegranate seeds to the sauce and mix well. Set aside.
  • Top finished lab chops with the pomegranate chimichurri sauce.

Notes

  • For more browing on the exterior, pat the lamb dry and broil in your oven for a minute.
  • Pull chops slightly before target temperature achieved and let carryover cooking finish the job to avoid overcooking
  • Cook in batches if needed as you don't want to overcrowd the pan when cooking. Cooking too many at one time leads to too much moisture impacting texture.
