Chicken Kafta

🇱🇧 Lebanon

Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground chicken
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 1/2 bunch parsley, finely chopped
  • 1 1/2 tsp 7 spices
  • 1 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 3 tbsp avocado oil, divided

Steps

  1. Finely chop the onion and parsley.
  2. In a large bowl, combine ground chicken, chopped onion, parsley, salt, pepper, and 7 spices.
  3. Add 1 tablespoon of avocado oil and mix thoroughly by hand until well combined.
  4. Shape the mixture into patties, finger-shaped kafta, or mold onto skewers.
  5. For skillet cooking: heat 2 tablespoons avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the kafta 3-4 minutes per side.
  6. Add a sliced onion to the skillet and cook 5 minutes until softened, then add sliced tomato and cook a few more minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  7. For grilling: preheat grill to medium heat and grill kafta about 10 minutes, turning occasionally for even cooking and grill marks.
