Recipe for a ground chicken patty with yogurt?

This is Rachael Ray's recipe for





Indian-Spiced Patties with Yogurt Sauce





1录 pounds ground chicken or lamb


2 tablespoons mild or hot curry paste


1 tablespoon grill seasoning, such as McCormick Montreal Steak


Seasoning (a palmful)


2 pinches of ground cinnamon or ground cloves


1陆 teaspoons ground cumin (half a palmful)


1陆 teaspoons ground coriander (half a palmful)


Extra-virgin olive oil (EVOO), for drizzling


1 cup Greek yogurt


1 garlic clove


Juice of 1/2 lemon (about 1 tablespoon)


A generous handful of cilantro or flat-leaf parsley


A generous handful of mint


4 leaves of Bibb or Boston lettuce, chopped


2 medium tomatoes, sliced


Salt


4 pita rounds





Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high. Mix the ground chicken with the curry paste, grill seasoning, cinnamon, cumin and coriander and form into 4 large, 1/2-inch-thick patties. Coat the patties with a little EVOO and grill for 4 to 5 minutes on each side (3 minutes on each side for lamb).





In a food processor, blend the yogurt with the garlic, lemon juice, cilantro and mint until smooth. Season the lettuce and tomatoes with a little salt.





Char the pitas on the grill, about 1 minute on each side, and cut about 1 inch off the tops. Open each pita and fill with a patty, a quarter of the chopped lettuce and sliced tomatoes and a generous spoonful of the yogurt sauce.
