What you need:

lamb chops
pita bread
olive oil
salt and pepper
lemon juice
bulgur wheat

mint
raita

We just got our Air Fryer a week ago and I am so pleased with it. I was a bit sceptical in the beginning, but I have to admit, it’s been amazing so far. No oil, just a tiny drop, but the food is juicy and succulent and obviously so much healthier. I’m using the Ninja Air Fryer (hubby’s choice). 🙂

Here’s how to prepare these beautiful Air Fryer Lamb Chops Mediterranean Style

Ingredients:

1kg lamb chops
1/2 lemon, juice only
2tbsp olive oil
salt and pepper to taste

For the Herby Bulgur Wheat:

200g bulgur wheat, cooked
2 ripe tomatoes, diced
a bunch of fresh coriander, chopped
a bunch of fresh mint leaves, chopped
1 lemon, juice only
1tbsp olive oil
salt to taste

Preparation:

Marinade the lamb chops with olive oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper and leave in the fridge for couple of hours.
Meanwhile, make the bulgur wheat – in a bowl, simply combine it with the herbs, tomatoes, olive oil and salt. Mix well.
To cook the lamb chops in the air fryer – arrange them in the basket and cook for 20 minutes at 200°C. Make sure to turn them at least once or twice so they stay juicy and are evenly cooked.
To assemble the dish, on a pita bread, spread 1tbsp of raita, then 2-3tbsp of the Herby Bulgur Wheat and arrange a couple of Lamb chop on top. Serve hot!

Enjoy!
