INGREDIENTS

5 oz Ground turkey

0.5 cup Canned chickpeas

1 tbsp Fresh parsley

1 tbsp Fresh cilantro

1 clove Garlic

0.5 tsp Ground cumin

0.5 tsp Ground coriander

0.25 tsp Sea salt

0.25 tsp Black pepper

0.5 tbsp Olive oil

1 tbsp Tahini

0.25 cup Greek yogurt

1 tbsp Lemon juice

1 tsp Water

PREPARATION

• 1

  Drain and rinse the chickpeas, then pat them thoroughly dry with a paper towel to ensure the falafel stays crispy.

• 2

  In a food processor, pulse the chickpeas, garlic, parsley, and cilantro until finely minced but not pureed.

• 3

  Transfer the mixture to a bowl and combine with the ground turkey, cumin, coriander, sea salt, and black pepper, mixing until just incorporated.

• 4

  Form the mixture into four small, thick patties, pressing firmly so they hold their shape during cooking.

• 5

  Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat and sear the patties for 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.

• 6

  In a small jar, whisk together the tahini, Greek yogurt, lemon juice, and water until the sauce is smooth and pourable.

• 7

  Plate the crispy falafel and finish with a generous drizzle of the lemon-tahini sauce.
