Chicken Kofta Kebabs
Using chicken mince instead of thigh or breast here allows more room for flavour, and these Middle-Eastern spiced bites are packed full of it
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 small red onion finely diced
- 1 garlic clove finely chopped
- 1 red chilli deseeded and finely chopped
- 500 g chicken mince
- 50 g fresh breadcrumbs
- 1 egg lightly beaten
- 1 tbsp fresh coriander leaves and stems finely chopped
Instructions
- Heat the oil in a frying pan and cook the onion over a medium for 3-4 mins until beginning to soften.
- Stir in the garlic and chilli and cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Season and remove from the heat.
- Put the mince in a large bowl along with the remaining ingredients.
- Add the onion mix and use slightly damp hands to combine well. Form into 12 oval shaped patties and place onto a foil lined grill rack.
- Preheat the grill to medium-high. Cook the kofta for 8-10 mins on each side until golden and cooked through.
- Meanwhile, combine the tomatoes, cucumber and parsley in a bowl.
- Whisk together the remaining salad ingredients, season until emulsified and toss through the salad. Serve on the side of the kofta.
