Lazy Kebab Rolls

No ratings yet
These viral lazy kebab rolls are made by pressing seasoned ground chicken onto tortillas, rolling, slicing into pinwheels, and skewering before baking until golden. They’re juicy on the inside, slightly crispy on the edges, and finished with hot honey and a creamy dill pickle tzatziki for the perfect balance.

INGREDIENTS

Kebab Rolls

  • 1 lb ground chicken
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 Tablespoons hot honey plus more for drizzling
  • 6 burrito-sized tortillas

Pickle Tzatziki

  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/3 cup shredded dill pickles about 3 pickles or cucumber
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh dill
  • 1 clove garlic minced or grated
  • 1 Tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Mix the chicken: In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and hot honey. Mix until evenly combined.

  • Press onto tortillas: Divide the mixture evenly between the tortillas. Press into a thin, even layer across each tortilla. Place parchment on top if needed to help spread it out.

  • Roll tightly: Roll each tortilla into a tight log so the layers stay intact.
  • Slice into pinwheels: Cut into 1–1½ inch rounds. You should see spiral layers.
  • Skewer the rolls: Thread the pieces onto skewers, going through the center so the spiral faces outward. This keeps them secure and helps them cook evenly.
  • Bake: Arrange on a baking sheet and bake at 400°F for 20 minutes, until the edges are golden and the centers are fully cooked.
  • Make the tzatziki: While they bake, shred the pickle in a bowl and press the moisture out with paper towels. Mix it together with the Greek yogurt, dill, garlic, lemon juice, and salt. Taste and adjust salt or lemon as needed. Chill until ready to serve.

  • Finish and serve: Sprinkle the kebabs with a little extra salt and drizzle with hot honey. Serve warm with pickle tzatziki for dipping.
