Ingredients
2 pounds ground lamb or turkey
1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt, plus more for serving
1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves, finely chopped
1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, finely chopped
2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves, finely chopped
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 to 3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 lemon
1 Fresno chile pepper, seeded and finely chopped
1 large shallot, minced
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
Vegetable oil, for brushing
Cooking spray
Grilled naan bread, for serving
Melted butter, for brushing
Chutney, for serving
Directions
- Combine the ground lamb, yogurt, herbs, cinnamon, garlic, egg, the finely grated zest of the lemon, chile pepper, shallot, some salt and lots of pepper in a large bowl. Form one-quarter of the meat mixture around each of 4 metal skewers (if you don't have skewers, you can form it into patties). Brush with vegetable oil.
- Heat a grill pan or griddle over medium-high heat until very hot, then spray with cooking spray. Add the kabobs and cook, gently turning occasionally, until cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes.
- Brush the naan with melted butter. Cut the lemon into wedges. Serve the kabobs with the naan, lemon wedges, chutney and yogurt.
