Steps:
- Place the ground chicken, parsley, onions, garlic and spices all in a large bowl. Use your hands to combine until the mixture is well blended. It will feel a little sticky, but that's fine.
- Form the Kafta into an oblong shape about 1 inch in thickness. You can form them on a wooden skewer or without.
- Grease the grates of a gas grill or indoor grill pan, and preheat it to medium high heat. When heated through, transfer the kafta to the grill. Grill for 4-5 minutes per side, until the chicken is fully cooked.
- Serve hot off the grill with your choice of side.

HERBY CHICKEN KOFTA MEATBALLS
This big batch of meatballs is inspired by kofta, the flavor-packed ground meat patties popular throughout the Middle East and North Africa. Stash them in your freezer so you always have the building blocks of a great meal. Try them simmered in tomato sauce, served over grains or greens, or packed into pita sandwiches with cucumbers, red onion, mint, and a tangy yogurt sauce.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Pulse yellow onions and garlic in a food processor until very finely chopped.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add chopped onion and garlic, season with 1/2 tsp. salt, and cook, stirring, until softened and lightly browned, 10-15 minutes. Add cumin, coriander, and red pepper and cook, stirring, until fragrant, 30-60 seconds. Scrape into a large bowl and let cool slightly.
- Wipe out food processor and add parsley and mint. Pulse until finely chopped, then transfer to bowl with onion mixture. Add chicken and remaining 1 1/2 tsp. salt to bowl with onion mixture. Mix with your hands to combine, but do not overwork. Divide into 16 equal portions (about 1/3 cup per kofta). Shape into 3 1/2x2" "footballs" with tapered ends.
- Arrange patties on a rimmed baking sheet and roast, flipping halfway through, until chicken is cooked through and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center registers 165°F, about 8 minutes per side.
- Do Ahead
- Kofta can be made 3 days ahead; transfer to an airtight container and chill, or freeze up to 6 months.

- First, soak a very small piece of sandwich bread in water until super tender, then drain the water and squeeze the bread dry. Place the bread in a large mixing bowl. Add ground chicken, grated onion, minced garlic, chopped parsley and mint. Add Aleppo-style pepper, coriander, paprika, kosher salt and pepper. Add the egg, if using, and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil to bring this mixture together.
- Take fistfuls of the chicken mixture and form into 8 oval patties that are about 1 to 1 1/2 inches thick (try to keep them all equal in size).Arrange the patties on a tray or a large plate (they should not be touching) and chill for 15 to 20 minutes while the grill is heating (longer if you have the time)
- Grease the grates of your gas grill (or an indoor griddle or skillet) with a bit of oil and preheat to medium-high. When ready, arrange the chicken kofta on the grill or griddle so that they are far enough apart (you'll want to have enough room to turn them over). Grill for 4 to 5 minutes on each side or until the chicken is fully cooked. (Use a grill-safe spatula to turn the chicken kofta over halfway through cooking).
- In my opinion these kofta patties are best hot off the grill. Add a little garnish of Aleppo-style pepper if you like and serve with your favorite Mediterranean sides.
