NOTE: Ground turkey thigh is juicer and holds up to grilling, but extra lean ground turkey breast meat will also work here. I find that using my hands to mix all the ingredients together works the best for making any form of patty. 

Turkey Koftas:

  1. Soak 10 wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes.
  2. In a large bowl combine turkey, onion, parsley, mint, paprika, cumin, cinnamon, allspice, breadcrumbs, salt, and pepper. Mix until all ingredients are well blended.
  3. Using a 1/3 cup measuring tool, make 10-12 oval shaped patties and pierce with a soaked toothpick through the middle. Place in fridge while grill preheats.
  4. Preheat grill to high heat. Add Turkey Koftas to the grill and reduce temperature down to medium. Cook for 15-20 minutes, flipping once after 8 minutes, or until meat has reached 165F.

Sides:

  1. Place all sliced/chopped fresh vegetables on a plate.

Yogurt:

  1. Mix all ingredients in a small bowl. Refrigerate any leftovers.

Pita:

  1. Grill for 1-2 minutes per side or serve with cooked rice if preferred.
