Spicy turkish ground chicken kebabs
1 pound ground chicken or turkey
2 large egg whites
3 Tbs onion finely chopped
3 Tbs red bell pepper finely chopped
2 Tbs olive oil divided
1/4 cup parsley finely chopped
1/2 tsp nutmeg
3/4 tsp coriander
3/4 tsp salt or to taste
1/4 tsp cayenne
thinly sliced grilled onions & red bell for garnish
fresh herbs & lemon wedges
Preheat broiler. In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, egg whites, onion, bell pepper, 2 tablespoons olive oil & seasonings. Mix gently until well blended.
Divide into even portions that are equal to double the number of servings being made. For example, if you are making this recipe to serve four, divide the seasoned meat into 8 portions. Form each portion into a 2 1/2" - 3" long sausage. To prevent the meat from sticking too much, wet hands with cold tap water when forming the patties.
Insert a flat-bladed skewer lengthwise through the meat. Gently flatten the meat & shape it into an oval (about 3" x 1 1/2") around each skewer. Repeat, placing two kebabs on each skewer.
Arrange skewers on a foil-lined broiling tray. Brush lightly on both sides with remaining olive oil. Broil about 4" from source of heat until done (but not browned), about 1 1/2 - 2 minutes per side. Serve immediately over rice pilaf. |
