Reheat Lamb Chops in the Oven
The oven is a good way to reheat lamb chops properly. It will get them heated to the right temperature and you have a lot of control so it doesn’t dry out.
The downside is that it takes around 15-20 minutes to heat up the lamb chops properly.
Steps
- Preheat oven to 350°F
- Cover lamb chops with aluminum foil
- Place in oven for 10 minutes on one side and 10 minutes on the other
- Depending on the thickness of the meat, it might be heated properly and ready to eat before the 20 minutes is up
- Use a thermometer to check if the internal temperature has reached 165 degrees Fahrenheit. If it has, it is safe then you can take it out.
Reheat Lamb Chops on the Stovetop
The stovetop is a quick way to reheat lamb chops. Caution should be used as you need to ensure that you don’t overheat it and dry it out.
Steps
- Preheat skillet over a medium flame
- Add a little bit of oil or butter
- Throw in the lamb chops and let them heat up for 3-5 minutes on each side (depending on the thickness). You do not want to keep them on too long as the lamb chops can dry out.
- Once fully reheated, you can take out and enjoy
Reheat Lamb Chops in the Microwave
The microwave is the quickest option for reheating lamb chops and it can have everything warmed up and ready to eat in around 2 minutes.
Steps

- Cover with a damp paper cloth
- Position the plate to the outside of the microwave turntable, as this will help the lamb chop from drying out.
