Succulent & tender lamb loin chops with a golden crust, cooked in the Instant Pot…
Instant Pot pressure-cooked & air-fried lamb loin chops, ready in just 15 minutes. This has turned out to be the best-tasting lamb loin chops I’ve ever made. Lamb chops marinated with garlic & rosemary, have to be first pressure-cooked & then air fried. When air-fried, the chops will have a beautiful golden crust. The flavourful liquid that’s left in the pot is turned into a delicious gravy. This will make a perfect meal for special occasions. Enjoy!
