Lula Kebabs
Report
I have no doubt, you will quickly become a fan of this juicy and tender Lula Kebab. The recipe is easy to make and uses just 6 ingredients not counting salt and pepper. Great for summer grilling and picky eaters approved.

Ingredients
- 3 lb ground chicken thighs meat and skin
- 4 cloves garlic pushed through a garlic press
- 1 ¼ teaspoon cumin
- ¾ teaspoon Coriander
- 1 small onion very finely minced
- 1 teaspoon dried barberries optional
- 2 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil for brushing the grill
Instructions
Combine and mix the ingredients
- In a large bowl combine ground chicken thighs, garlic, onion, cumin, coriander, dried Barberries, salt and pepper.
- Now comes the most important part - mixing the Kebab mixture. You need to mix it for no less then 10 - 15 minutes. This will help the meat to stick better to a skewer and not fall apart. After you've done with the mixing, the meat should be sticky like a dough.
- Take about a fistful of the meat mixture into one hand and drop it back into the bowl. You need to apply a little force here. Repeat this step for the remaining of the meat mixture for about 20 times. Don't worry, it's not difficult! Cover the bowl with a plastic film and place it in a fridge for 2 hours or overnight.
- Fire up the grill or preheat the oven to 400F. If you're going to grill kebabs, brush grill grates with a bit of oil.
- 30 to 60 minutes before you arrange Lula Kebab on skewers, I recommend soaking the skewers in water. This will keep them from burning up on the grill.
Arrange Kebabs on skewers
- Remove a bowl with Lula Kebab mixture from the fridge. Take about ½ cup portion of meat mixture and wrap it around a skewer. You can either have 1 long kebab (in this case I recommend using about ¾ -1 cup portions of meat per 1 skewer). Or you can do what I did and have 2 little ½ cup pieces of kebab on a skewer.
Cook
- If you're using an outdoor grill, you need to grill Lula Kebab for 4-5 on each side until it's nice and charred.If you're cooking in the oven, place skewers on a parchment lined baking sheet and bake for about 30 minutes turning once. Serve immediately!
