Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams lean ground chicken
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 1 medium tomato, finely chopped
- 0.5 cup fresh coriander, finely chopped
- 0.25 cup fresh mint leaves, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons whole wheat flour
- 2 small green chilies, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon ginger paste
- 1 teaspoon garlic paste
- 1 teaspoon coriander powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin powder
- 0.5 teaspoon red chili flakes
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper powder
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- oil spray
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the lean ground chicken with the finely chopped onion, tomato, fresh coriander, and fresh mint.
Add the whole wheat flour, green chilies, ginger paste, and garlic paste to the mixture.
Mix in the coriander powder, cumin powder, red chili flakes, salt, and black pepper powder.
Crack the egg into the mixture and pour in the lemon juice.
Use your hands or a large spoon to thoroughly mix all the ingredients until well combined. Ensure that the spices and herbs are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Preheat a grill pan over medium heat and lightly spray it with oil spray to prevent the kababs from sticking.
Divide the chicken mixture into 12 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball and then flatten it into a patty shape with your palms.
Place the patties onto the preheated grill pan. Cook each side for about 6-8 minutes or until the patties are cooked through and have a golden brown color. Ensure internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Remove the kababs from the grill pan and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
Serve the Low Fat Chapli Kababs hot with a side of chutney or yogurt dip, and a fresh salad.
