Chicken Adana
Report
Chicken Adana is a delicious kebab that is perfect for grilling season! Ground chicken is flavored with herbs and spices and then grilled until charred on the outside and juicy within. These Turkish-style kebabs are easy to make, and they can be made in advance, perfect for a backyard party. Cook these outside on your outdoor grill or bring them inside and cook them in a skillet or griddle pan. Add a salad and some flatbread, and you have an easy summer dinner.

Instructions
- Place the chopped capsicum, parsley, tomato paste, and olive oil in a mini food processor and blitz to a paste. If you don't have one, then you can grate the capsicum.½ red bell pepper2 tablespoons flat-leaf parsley2 tablespoon tomato paste1 tablespoon olive oil
- Place the ground chicken in a bowl and tip in the capsicum mixture.1 lb / 450 g ground chicken
- Add in all the herbs and spices.2 teaspoons paprika1 teaspoon salt1 teaspoon ground cumin1 teaspoon ground coriander1 teaspoon ground sumac1 teaspoon smoked paprika½ teaspoon red pepper flakes¼ teaspoon dried oregano
- Use your hands to combine the chicken and capsicum mixture thoroughly.
- Using wet hands, take a handful of the chicken mixture, form a ball with it, and then use your hands to pull it into a sausage shape; push the kebab stick through and then use your hands to spread the mixture out to an even thickness. (- see note 3)
- Cook the kebabs on the grill or in a heavy-based skillet or griddle. They will need about 4-5 minutes on each side.
Notes
- Sumac is a tangy spice used commonly in Turkish cuisine.
- Red chili flakes add a little heat to chicken adana kebabs, but you can leave them out. Or increase the amount if you want it spicy.
- If you are using the traditional flat metal kebab sticks, form the mixture around the skewer rather than trying to push it through.
