• 0.5 teaspoon red chili flakes
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper powder
• 1 large egg

• 0 oil spray

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the lean ground chicken with the finely chopped onion, tomato, fresh coriander, and fresh mint.

Step 2

Add the whole wheat flour, green chilies, ginger paste, and garlic paste to the mixture.

Step 3

Mix in the coriander powder, cumin powder, red chili flakes, salt, and black pepper powder.

Step 4

Crack the egg into the mixture and pour in the lemon juice.

Step 5

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.

Step 6

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).

Step 9

Remove the kababs from the grill pan and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
