Chef's tip
Ground chicken is often leaner than ground lamb and can dry out more quickly. When browning it, add a little oil if needed and keep the pan juices unless the recipe says to drain them. Cook just until it reaches 165°F (74°C).
½ cup whole-milk yogurt
Chef's tip
Choose a plain, unsweetened dairy-free yogurt unless the recipe calls for a flavored one.
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp ground coriander
1 tsp smoked paprika
½ tsp ground cinnamon
½ tsp cayenne pepper
1 tsp kosher salt
½ tsp black pepper
2 tbsp olive oil, for brushing

For the yogurt sauce

1 cup whole-milk yogurt
Chef's tip
Choose a plain, unsweetened dairy-free yogurt unless the recipe calls for a flavored one.
1 clove garlic, minced
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
2 tbsp fresh mint, finely chopped
¼ tsp kosher salt

For serving

2 tbsp fresh flat-leaf parsley, roughly chopped (optional)
lemon wedges (optional)

Instructions

1
In a large bowl, combine the ground lamb, 1/2 cup yogurt, 4 minced garlic cloves, cumin, coriander, smoked paprika, cinnamon, cayenne, 1 tsp salt, and black pepper. Mix with your hands until the spices are evenly distributed throughout the meat, about 1–2 minutes — do not overwork.
2
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the marinade to penetrate the meat.
