TURKISH CHICKEN KEBABS
I'd like to think that all the chicken coming off American grills this summer will be as tasty, juicy, and tender as these Turkish chicken kebabs. By using a flavorful, yogurt-based marinade, like the one seen herein, even inexperienced grillers can produce impressive results. I'm not sure how 'Turkish' this is--it's loosely based on a lamb marinade I've used for a long time.

Steps:
- Whisk yogurt, lemon juice, olive oil, ketchup, garlic, red pepper flakes, salt, cumin, black pepper, paprika, and cinnamon together in a bowl.
- Place chicken thigh halves into the yogurt marinade and coat them thoroughly on all sides. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate 2 to 8 hours.
- Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
- Using 2 skewers for each kebab, thread half of the chicken thighs onto each pair of skewers making a fairly thick "log" shape.
- Place kebabs on grill. Do not try to turn them until they begin to unstick from the grill, 3 or 4 minutes. Turn kebabs and grill the other side 3 or 4 minutes; turn. Continue cooking and turning until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 6 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Steps:
- Add chicken, turmeric, salt, saffron mixture, peppers, garlic, onions, jalapeno, parsley and mint to a mixing bowl and mix well by hand. Add to a food processor and blend until the mixture gains a paste-like consistency, about 2 minutes.
- Wet hands with water so chicken mixture does not stick to your hands. Take a 5-ounce scoop of the chicken mixture and roll it into a cylindrical or oblong shape by pressing it together. Thread a skewer through the mixture. Repeat with the remaining mixture.
- Preheat a grill or broiler. Grill kebabs for about 3 minutes on each side or broil for 4 minutes on each side.
SPICY TURKISH GROUND CHICKEN KABOBS
Steps:
- Preheat broiler. In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, egg whites, onion, bell pepper, 2 tb olive oil & seasonings. Mix gently until well blended. Divide into even portions that are equal to double the number of servings being made. For example, if you are making this recipe to serve four, divide the seasoned meat into 8 portions. Form each portion into a 2 1/2" - 3" long sausage. To prevent the meat from sticking too much, wet hands with cold tap water when forming the patties. Insert a flat-bladed skewer lengthwise through the meat. Gently flatten the meat & shape it into an oval (about 3" x 1 1/2") around each skewer. Repeat, placing two kabobs on each skewer. Arrange skewers on a foil-lined broiling tray. Brush lightly on both sides with remaining olive oil. Broil about 4" from source of heat until done (but not browned), about 1 1/2 - 2 minutes per side. Serve immediately over rice pilaf. Posted to EAT-L Digest - 17 Jun Date: Tue, 18 Jun 1996 15:59:12 -0600 From: Ilene Warfield

Steps:
- Start a charcoal or wood fire or heat a gas grill. The fire should be moderately hot and the rack about 4 inches from the heat source. Mince one onion, and combine it in a large bowl with oil, lemon juice, garlic, salt, pepper, bay leaves and marjoram or oregano. Taste, and adjust seasoning. Marinate chicken in this mixture for at least a few minutes or overnight in refrigerator.
- If using wooden skewers, soak them in water to cover for a few minutes. Cut remaining onion into quarters, then separate it into large pieces. Thread chicken and onion alternately onto skewers, leaving a little space between pieces.
- Grill, turning as each side browns, and brushing with remaining marinade, for about 12 to 15 minutes or until chicken is cooked through. Serve with lemon wedges or sprinkle with a bit of sumac.

Steps:
- Crush 1 garlic clove and mix with 3 tbsp yogurt, the lemon juice, 1 tsp tomato purée, half the spices, and some seasoning in a medium bowl. Add the chicken, toss, cover and chill in the fridge for at least 1 hr or overnight.
- Make the chilli sauce. Put 100g of the tomatoes, the whole red chilli, the remaining spices, garlic clove and tomato purée, plus 1 tbsp olive oil, half the red onion and the pomegranate molasses in a food processor. Add some seasoning and pulse until puréed, then set aside.
- Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6, and heat a griddle pan. Thread the chicken onto metal skewers or wooden ones that have been soaked, then wipe off the excess marinade. Skewer the remaining tomatoes on a separate skewer. Lightly oil the griddle with the remaining olive oil and brown the chicken on both sides, then transfer to a baking tray and bake in the oven for 10 mins, or until cooked through. Meanwhile, griddle the tomatoes for 1-2 mins, turning halfway through so they have griddle marks on both sides.
- Serve the chicken and tomatoes on flatbreads with the remaining red onion, pickled chillis, the remaining Greek yogurt, parsley and coriander with the chilli sauce spooned over.

Steps:
- Grind the garlic, ginger, orange zest and spring onions to a paste in a food processor. Add the honey, orange juice, soy sauce and oil, then blend again. Pour the mixture over the cubed chicken and leave to marinate for at least 1 hr, but preferably overnight. Toss in the mushrooms for the last half an hour so they take on some of the flavour, too.
- Thread the chicken, tomatoes, mushrooms and peppers onto 20 wooden skewers, then cook on a griddle pan for 7-8 mins each side or until the chicken is thoroughly cooked and golden brown. Turn the kebabs frequently and baste with the marinade from time to time until evenly cooked. Arrange on a platter, scatter with chopped spring onion and eat with your fingers.
