Directions
Combine chicken, onion, 2 tablespoons cilantro, mint, oil, ½ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon pepper, ¼ teaspoon coriander, cumin, Aleppo pepper, allspice and cinnamon in a large bowl. Cover and refrigerate for at least 10 minutes and up to overnight.
Position rack in upper third of oven; preheat broiler to high. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.
With damp hands, form about 3 tablespoons of the chicken mixture into an oval around a metal skewer. Add a second oval with another 3 tablespoons of the mixture on the same skewer. Repeat with the remaining chicken mixture to make 4 skewers with 2 kofta each. Place them on the prepared pan.
Broil the kofta, flipping once, until browned and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center registers 165°F, 8 to 12 minutes.
Meanwhile, whisk yogurt, orange zest and juice in a small bowl with the remaining 2 tablespoons cilantro, ⅛ teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon each pepper and coriander. Serve the sauce with the kofta.

Nutrition Facts(per serving)
- Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
