Indulge in juicy, flavor-packed BBQ bacon-wrapped lamb lollipops cooked to perfection in your air fryer! A truly crazy good eat you won't resist.
Ingredients
- • Lamb rib chops: 8 (approximately 1 inch thick)
- • Smoked bacon strips: 8
- • BBQ sauce: 1/2 cup
- • Brown sugar: 2 tablespoons
- • Garlic powder: 1 teaspoon
- • Onion powder: 1 teaspoon
- • Smoked paprika: 1 teaspoon
- • Black pepper: 1/2 teaspoon
- • Salt: 1/2 teaspoon
- • Fresh parsley: 2 tablespoons, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- 1 Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). This ensures even cooking and a crisp exterior.
- 2 In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, black pepper, and salt. Rub this mixture all over the lamb chops, pressing it in to adhere.
- 3 Wrap each seasoned lamb chop with a strip of smoked bacon, securing it with a toothpick if necessary. The bacon adds a smoky flavor and helps keep the meat moist.
- 4 Brush each bacon-wrapped lamb chop with a generous amount of BBQ sauce, ensuring all sides are coated. The BBQ sauce caramelizes beautifully in the air fryer.
- 5 Arrange the lamb lollipops in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not touching each other. Cook for 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway through, or until the bacon is crispy and the lamb is cooked to your desired doneness.
- 6 Once cooked, remove the lamb lollipops from the air fryer and let them rest for a few minutes. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving to add a touch of freshness.
Serving Suggestions
- • These Air Fryer BBQ Bacon-Wrapped Lamb Lollipops pair beautifully with a side of creamy mashed potatoes or a fresh garden salad. For a truly indulgent experience, consider serving them alongside cheesy garlic bread or crispy fried onions. A glass of full-bodied red wine like Cabernet Sauvignon or Shiraz complements the rich flavors perfectly. For a refreshing non-alcoholic option, try an iced herbal tea with a hint of lemon or mint.
Storage Tips
To store leftovers, place the lamb lollipops in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 days. To reheat, preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C) and cook for 3-4 minutes until warmed through. For best results, avoid microwaving, as it may result in a loss of crispness.
