Diet Chebureki

Easy and delicious diet chebureki baked in the oven. One cheburek contains 35 g of protein and only 390 kcal! (Makes 12 pieces)

Ingredients

• Chicken fillet 1 kg
• Onion 300 g (3 medium pcs)
• Salt 2 tsp
• Black pepper 1 tsp
• Water 50 ml
• Low-fat light Mozzarella cheese 500 g
• Egg yolks 6 pcs
• Thick lavash (tortilla) 12 pcs
• White sesame seeds

Method

1. 1.Mince the chicken using a blender or meat grinder.
2. 2.Finely chop the onion, add it to the meat along with salt, black pepper, and a little water, then knead well.
3. 3.Separate the egg yolks from the whites (the yolks will be used to seal and glaze the lavash).
4. 4.Spread about 3 full tablespoons of the prepared mince onto each lavash and top with grated cheese.
5. 5.Brush the edges of the lavash with egg yolk and fold to seal. Press the edges with a fork so they don't open during baking.
6. 6.Brush the tops with egg yolk and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
7. 7.Bake in a preheated oven at 190°C on the middle rack for at least 18 minutes, until the top is golden brown.

Notes

• If you prefer juicier meat, you can use chicken thighs instead of fillets, but it will be less diet-friendly.
• Try to use thick lavash (like tortillas), as thin lavash can tear or burn easily.
• Don't worry about the filling; it will cook through completely in the oven.
