Description
Flavorful and juicy Chicken Kofta paired with a creamy garlic yogurt sauce, bringing Mediterranean flavors to your table.
Ingredients
Scale
- 500 grams ground chicken
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 cup plain yogurt
- 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
- Pinch of salt
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, chopped onion, minced garlic, parsley, cumin, coriander, salt, and black pepper. Use your hands or a wooden spoon to mix well until all ingredients are evenly combined.
- Once mixed, form the mixture into small oval-shaped koftas, about the size of a golf ball.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and brush it lightly with olive oil to prevent sticking.
- Place the koftas on the grill and cook for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally until the internal temperature reaches 75°C (165°F).
- While the koftas are grilling, prepare the garlic yogurt sauce by mixing the yogurt, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt in a bowl until smooth.
- Serve the grilled koftas with the garlic yogurt sauce on the side for dipping.
Notes
For best results, let the koftas rest for 10 minutes before grilling. Use fresh ingredients to enhance the flavor.
