INGREDIENTS

4 oz Ground turkey

0.5 cup Canned chickpeas

1 tbsp Tahini

0.5 cup Nonfat plain Greek yogurt

1 tbsp Lemon juice

1 clove Garlic

0.25 cup Fresh parsley

0.5 tsp Ground cumin

0.5 tsp Ground coriander

0.25 tsp Sea salt

0.25 tsp Black pepper

1 tsp Olive oil

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

• 2

  In a food processor, pulse the rinsed chickpeas, ground turkey, parsley, minced garlic, cumin, coriander, salt, and pepper until the mixture is well combined but still retains a slightly coarse texture.

• 3

  Form the mixture into 6 small patties or balls and arrange them evenly on the prepared baking sheet.

• 4

  Lightly brush the top of each falafel patty with olive oil to help achieve a golden, crispy exterior during baking.

• 5

  Bake for 18-20 minutes, flipping the patties halfway through, until they are cooked through and firm to the touch.

• 6

  While the falafel is in the oven, whisk together the Greek yogurt, tahini, and lemon juice in a small bowl until the sauce is smooth and pourable.

• 7

  Serve the warm falafel immediately, drizzled generously with the lemon-tahini sauce.
