Bring your lamb chops up to room temperature.

In an air fryer:

Notes

How to know if the Lamb Chops are cooked perfectly: If you have a meat thermometer, you’re looking for 56-60℃ for medium rare. Meat always increases in temp a little when it’s resting so don’t be afraid to take it out a few degrees before the temperature you’re aiming for.
