AIR FRYER RACK OF LAMB WITH ROASTED GARLIC AIOLI



Air Fryer Rack of Lamb with Roasted Garlic Aioli image

The next time you're in need of an elegant and simple meal, look no further than your air fryer. We used it to cook a rack of lamb, first coating it with a Parmesan crust to produce a crisp, golden outer layer that helps keep the lamb juicy and flavorful. Cooking a whole rack also helps the meat stay tender as there's less chance of overcooking, plus it makes for a beautiful presentation.

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

One 8-rib rack of lamb, frenched (1 1/4 to 1 1/2 pounds)
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup grated Parmesan
1/3 cup panko breadcrumbs
1 large clove garlic, grated
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh thyme
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh rosemary
Nonstick cooking spray, for the air-fryer basket and lamb
6 large cloves garlic (unpeeled)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 teaspoon lemon zest plus 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • For the rack of lamb: Allow the rack of lamb to sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before cooking.
  • Rub the rack of lamb on both sides with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, then season with 2 teaspoons salt and several grinds of pepper. Set aside on a large plate.
  • Combine the Parmesan, panko, remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, grated garlic, thyme and rosemary in a large shallow bowl or pie plate. Add the lamb and firmly press the Parmesan mixture onto the meat in an even layer.
  • For the aioli: Place the unpeeled garlic cloves on a piece of aluminum foil, then add the olive oil, a pinch of salt and several grinds of pepper. Fold the sides of the foil upwards and seal into a pouch.
  • Preheat a 6-quart air fryer to 375 degrees F, then spray the basket with cooking spray, Place the lamb, fat-side up, and the garlic pouch into the basket. Spray the top of the lamb with cooking spray. Air-fry the lamb until crust is crisp and deep golden brown and meat is desired doneness, about 18 minutes for medium rare, 20 minutes for medium and 22 minutes for medium-well. (The garlic can cook for the same time as the lamb.) Transfer the lamb to a cutting board, cover loosely with foil and allow to rest for 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, carefully open the foil packet. Squeeze out the tender cloves of garlic into a medium bowl and mash with the olive oil from the pouch until smooth. Mix in the mayonnaise, lemon zest and juice and Worcestershire to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
  • Once the lamb has rested, slice between the bones into individual chops and serve warm with the aioli.

Roasted garlic adds so much flavor to all dishes. Now it's super easy to make in an air fryer. Once roasted, the cloves easily pop out of their paper casings and are soft as butter. Try spreading on crusty bread or crackers, or use for garlic toast.

1 head garlic
aluminum foil
1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Cut the top off the head of garlic and place on a square piece of aluminum foil. Bring the foil up and around garlic. Pour olive oil on top and season with salt and pepper. Close ends of foil over garlic, creating a pouch.

Tips:

  • Choose the right variety of garlic: For roasting, it's best to use firm, plump garlic heads with no signs of sprouting or bruising. Some recommended varieties include Spanish Red, California White, and Elephant garlic.
  • Trim the garlic heads: Before roasting, trim off the top 1/4 inch of each garlic head to expose the cloves. This will help the cloves roast more evenly.
  • Drizzle with oil and season: Before air frying, drizzle the garlic heads with olive oil and sprinkle with salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings. This will enhance the flavor of the roasted garlic.
  • Adjust cooking time based on desired texture: The roasting time will vary depending on the desired texture of the roasted garlic. For softer, spreadable garlic, roast for 25-30 minutes. For firmer, caramelized cloves, roast for 35-40 minutes.
  • Let the garlic cool before handling: Once roasted, let the garlic heads cool for at least 10 minutes before handling. This will prevent the cloves from falling apart.

Air fryer roasted garlic is an easy and flavorful way to enjoy this versatile ingredient. With just a few simple steps, you can create perfectly roasted garlic that can be used in a variety of dishes, from pasta and pizza to dips and spreads.
