Instructions
 

Prepare the Turkey Skewers:

    - In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, onion powder, paprika, cumin, salt, pepper, and parsley. Mix until well combined.

      - If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning during grilling.

        Form the Skewers:

          - Divide the turkey mixture into equal portions and mold each portion around the skewers, shaping them into elongated patties. Make sure the turkey is evenly distributed and firmly packed.

            Make the Peach Salsa:

              - In a medium bowl, combine the diced peaches, red onion, jalapeño, cilantro, and lime juice. Gently mix and add salt to taste. Set aside to allow the flavors to meld.

                Preheat the Grill:

                  - Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Brush the grill grates with olive oil to prevent sticking.

                    Cook the Skewers:

                      - Place the turkey skewers on the grill and cook for about 6-8 minutes per side, or until the turkey is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).

                        Serve:

                          - Once cooked, remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes. Serve the turkey skewers with a generous spoonful of peach salsa on top or on the side for dipping. Enjoy your deliciously fresh meal!
