Preparation

Before starting, preheat the oven to 450°F.

Peel, then cut onion into 1/4-inch pieces.
Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
Finely chop parsley.

To a medium bowl, add turkey, panko, half the Middle Eastern Seasoning, half the garlic, half the parsley and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) salt.
Season with pepper, then combine.

On another parchment-lined baking sheet, add koftas.
