Try Persian barbecue chicken kebabs

Are you in the mood for an easy barbecue chicken recipe? How about Persian barbecue chicken?

I use ground chicken for this variation on a best hamburger recipe, and I find the oriental ingredients and spices accent and complement the flavorings. I love chicken recipes in general, not least because they are usually low in fat. This barbecue chicken recipe is no exception, so not only is it tasty, it's healthy as well.
