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 ground chicken, onion, garlic, parsley, cumin, coriander, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until combined.
- Form the mixture into small oval-shaped koftas, about the size of a golf ball.
- Preheat the grill and brush it with olive oil to prevent sticking.
- Grill the koftas for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally until they are cooked through with an internal temperature of 165°F.
- In a separate bowl, mix yogurt, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt for the garlic yogurt sauce.
- Serve the grilled koftas with the yogurt sauce on the side for dipping.
Notes
For best results, avoid overmixing the meat and ensure all koftas are uniform in size for even cooking.
