Instructions to make Persian Turkey Kofta Kebabs:
- In a large bowl combine until evenly blended the ground turkey, onion, garlic, parsley, breadcrumbs, spices and seasoning.
- Divide into evenly sized portions, I used a medium spoon to scoop the meat out. Should give you about 12-14 koftas.
- Roll into log shaped ovals. Place on parchment paper and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- If choosing to use wooden skewers, soak them in cold water for at least 30 minutes before grilling.
- When ready preheat grill to high.
- Carefully insert the skewers through the meat.
- Grill for 10-15 minutes on indirect heat turning occasionally, until meat is no longer pink.
- While the koftas are grilling, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil salt and pepper.
- Add the spinach, onion and toss to lightly coat the leaves in dressing.
- To serve either, fill the pita bread with the koftas and top with spinach or serve with the spinach on the side. As I said you can also serve without pita bread. I made my pita breads at home but you can buy yours from your local grocer if you prefer. Recipe attached here. - - https://cookpad.com/us/recipes/363986-homemade-pita-bread

I wondered how it was done. Kofta Kebab is a common food item in Persian, Indian, Turkish, Jewish, Arab and greek cuisines. In this video you can see a Tehrani street food vendor. The flavor on these Turkey Kofta Kebabs was so tasty on their own, but would be great with a Tzaziki style dipping sauce. I had some ground turkey the other day and knew I wanted to do a skewer with it and found inspiration on Skinny Taste with Gina's "Persian Turkey Kofta Kebabs".
