Ingredients
- ½ large red onion
- 1 ½ tsp salt
- ½ large red bell pepper
- ½ large green bell pepper
- 1 green chili pepper optional
- 1 cup fresh herbs: dill, parsley and cilantro roughly chopped
- 1 lb Canadian turkey breast fillets
- ½ tbsp cumin powder
Instructions
-
Finely blend the red onion into a paste. Place in a sieve over a bowl, mix with 1/2 tsp salt, and let it sit for 15–20 minutes to release excess moisture.
-
Roughly purée the bell peppers, green chili, and herbs. Set aside.
-
Pulse the turkey breast in a food processor until coarsely ground — not too fine.
-
Combine the turkey with the drained onion, pepper-herb mix, cumin, and remaining 1 tsp salt. Chill for 30 minutes to 2 hours to let the flavours develop.
-
Shape the mixture into oval kababs (about 1/2 cup per kabab).
-
Grill over medium-high heat, turning every few minutes, for about 10–12 minutes total, until juicy and charred.
Tips & Tricks
Grill over charcoal if you can – it adds amazing smoky flavour!
