TURKISH KEBABS
This is my version of Turkish kebabs which I made 'off the cuff' after searching unsuccessfully for a recipe online. The original sandwiches are made from meat that is pressed into a loaf and grilled on a rotating spit. The meat is shaved off as it gets crispy and then put into a pita sandwich. My recipe calls for thin slices of meat to be marinated and then broiled to get the same effect without a huge rotating grill. Serve in a warmed pita with goat cheese, tzatziki sauce, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and pepperoncinis.

Steps:
- Place the chopped onions in a large ceramic bowl and crush with the bottom of a glass until juice is rendered and onions look translucent. Stir in 2 crushed garlic cloves, 1/2 cup olive oil, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, oregano, 1 teaspoon black pepper, turmeric, curry powder, and 1 teaspoon salt. Mix well; add the sliced beef and toss to coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, and marinate in the refrigerator overnight.
- Combine the sour cream, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, dill, and 1 crushed clove of garlic. Mix well; cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
- Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source.
- Remove the meat from the marinade mixture, brushing off extra onions. Spread the slices on a baking sheet without overlapping, and salt to taste. Broil about 3 minutes per side or until browned and crispy, turning halfway through cooking.
- Divide the cooked meat between the pita breads, and drizzle with tzatziki sauce to serve.

TURKEY KOFTA KABOBS
My Persian neighbor introduced me to kofta about 20 years ago. His were made of beef and I never actually got his recipe but I'm pretty good at replicating flavors and these came pretty close...and of course using turkey instead of beef makes these a lot lighter.

GROUND CHICKEN/TURKEY KOFTA KEBABS
This is a light recipe that is awesome on the taste buds. It is very easy and quick to make and goes nicely along with couscous. You can play around with the vegetable ingredients till you get the right mixture, so those are estimates. I usually get a stir fry mix with peppers and onion and use 1 cup and mince it in a cuisine art chopper. I usually form them on metal skewers and remove them when cooking since my grill is too small.

GRILLED TURKEY KABOBS
I tried these kabobs at a friend's barbecue and asked for the recipe. Marinating them overnight really gives the flavor a chance to soak in. They make a tangy light meal served with fruited rice pilaf. -Marilyn Rodriguez of Fairbanks, Alaska

PERSIAN TURKEY KEBABS
This is a healthier alternative to lamb or beef kebabs using ground turkey. Of course if you prefer the meat over the turkey, please use in place and I promise great results. This is a combination of Lula and Kubidah. Delicious!!

Steps:
- Grate the onion and drain excess juices.
- Mix together the turkey, grated onion, egg, and remaining spices, EXCEPT the saffron threads.
- Heat a small skillet and slightly toast the saffron with pinch of salt.
- After the saffron becomes fragrant, move from heat to mortar and pestle and crush to fine powder (be careful not to burn the delicate threads).
- Add saffron to meat/spice mixture.
- Mix together until completely combined (2-3 minutes).
- Refrigerate for up to 24 hours.
- Form the mixture around metal or wooden kabab skewers (should make 8 - 10 skewers). Wet your hands in between to keep the meat from sticking. If the skewers are too hard to work with, you can simply form the kebabs without the skewers on to a lined baking sheet. Is using 99% fat free turkey this is the best option.
- Refrigerate again if the meat mixture becomes too loose and hard to work with.
- I prefer to broil these in the oven 8 minutes per side. Check after 4 minutes on first side to determine the length of your cooking.

THE FIVE KEBABS YOU SHOULD REALLY TRY IN TURKEY
From trtworld.com
Estimated Reading Time 8 mins
- The land of the kebab. So the history of the kebab goes way back. And to many different places (which explains the various spellings from kabob to kebap).
- It may have all started with the Cag kebab. It is not very easy to ascertain which is the “original Turkish kebab”, but Dr Burak Mil, who heads the tourism and hotel management department at Istanbul Arel University, thinks it might be the Cag [pronounced Cha-a kebap].
- Adana about you, but this is the Wonderwall of kebabs… Every kebapci (kebab maker or kebab restaurant) does their cover version of the Adana kebab. But the kebab is much harder to nail than the Oasis hit which every guy learns hoping to get the girls (pro-tip: high school girls are not so easy to impress).
- Homer said it first. Not the Simpson, but the Greek literary giant Homer, who wrote the Odyssey, apparently alluded to the sis [pronounced shish] kebab in his works.
- Butter me up, Iskender. If you go on the province of Bursa’s tourism website, it unabashedly declares the Iskender — also known as the Bursa kebab — the best kebab in the country.
- To doner or to not doner? I was warned that some Turks do not consider the regular ol’ doner a kebab. But how can one write about Turkish kebabs and not mention the mighty doner, which has saved many lives late at night in so many European countries?
