Recipe Tips

  • Adding more lamb shanks is a great way to feed more people. However, you may need a larger air fryer to be able to fit all the shanks.
  • Fresh or dried herbs will work fine with this recipe. Personally, I use dried herbs as they are easier to get my hands on. If you use fresh herbs, be sure to double the number of herbs you use.
  • Add red or white wine to the chicken stock for a bit of extra flavor.
  • Cooking times may vary depending on the size of your lamb shanks.
  • The lamb meat should easily come away from the bone. If it doesn’t, you may need to extend the cooking time slightly.
