This is a VERY simple way to enjoy Middle Eastern flavors in an American format... the hot dog! Serve on a bun or wrapped in a pita. I like adding banana-ketchup, but any condiment will do! Tahini might be appropriate. Rice or couscous or an Israeli salad would make a fine side dish. Use ground turkey with a 7% or 8% fat content, as the super lean turkey will be harder to cook with. Ingredients:
1 teaspoon ground cumin |
1 teaspoon ground coriander seed |
1 teaspoon ground ginger |
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper |
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt |
1 pound ground turkey |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Spray baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray.
2. In a small bowl, mix together cumin, coriander, ginger, cinnamon, pepper, and salt. In a large bowl, crumble the ground turkey; slowly work in seasoning mixture with your hands, distributing seasoning as evenly as possible. Divide into 8 equal balls. On a flat surface, roll out each turkey ball into a tube shape.
3. Spray a large skillet with nonstick cooking spray, and set it over medium heat. Place turkey tubes into the skillet; cook, turning frequently, until golden brown on all sides. Transfer to a baking sheet.
4. Bake in preheated oven about 6 minutes.
