Sheet Pan Kofta

Ingredients

  • Nonstick cooking spray, for the foil
  • 2 large yellow onions
  • 1 pound ground lamb or beef
  • 1 teaspoon turmeric
  • 1 teaspoon sumac
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 4 Roma tomatoes

Cooking Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.  Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and coat with cooking spray.

Step 2: Grate 1 of the onions into a large bowl.  Add the ground meat, turmeric, sumac, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.  Mix well using your hands or a spoon, or alternatively you can mix all kofta ingredients in a food processor or stand mixer.  Add the cilantro and mix again to combine.

Step 3: Wet your hands with some water (to avoid the mixture sticking to your hands), divide the mixture into 8 pieces and form each one into an oval patty.  Place the patties on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 4: Cut the tomatoes into quarters and cut the remaining onion into large chunks.  Place both on the baking sheet between the koftas.  Season with salt and pepper.  Bake until the koftas are fully cooked and the vegetables have softened, about 20 minutes.  Turn the oven to boil and broil until the vegetables are slightly charred in spots and the kofta are browned, 2 to 3 minutes.
