1 tsp. cinnamon

1 tsp. coriander

1 tsp. cayenne pepper

1 tsp. allspice

2 lbs. ground chicken

1/2 cup plain bread crumbs

1/4 cup finely chopped parsley

3 large eggs, lightly beaten

2 Tbsp. milk

3/4 tsp. salt 

 

Harissa Glaze

1/3 cup honey

1/3 cup chicken broth

1/4 cup harissa paste

1 1/2 Tbsp. minced garlic

Wooden skewers

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350° F and open flame grill to medium high.
  2. For spice blend, combine all ingredients in a small mixing bowl and stir well. Set aside.
  3. For meatballs, combine all ingredients and 2 tablespoons reserved Moroccan spice blend in a large mixing bowl and combine using your hands until incorporated.
