Description

This delicious Chicken Kofta with Garlic Yogurt Sauce comes together in about 30 minutes and is grilled for a quick and easy dinner that your family will love!


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
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (for grilling)
  • 1 cup plain yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • A pinch of salt (to taste)

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, chopped onion, minced garlic, parsley, cumin, coriander, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until everything is incorporated.
  2. Form the mixture into small, oval-shaped koftas.
  3. Preheat your grill and brush it with olive oil. Grill the koftas for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally until cooked through.
  4. While the koftas are grilling, prepare the garlic yogurt sauce by mixing yogurt, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt in a separate bowl.
  5. Serve the koftas with a generous dollop of garlic yogurt sauce on the side.

Notes

You can adjust the spices or add red pepper flakes to give it a kick! Leftovers will keep for up to 3 days if stored properly.
