Yield 4 to 6 kebabs

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 pounds skinless, boneless turkey breast, cut into 2-inch cubes
1 tablespoon vegetable oil, plus more for the grill
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
1 teaspoon paprika
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
12 slices bacon
1 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup buttermilk
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
Split French bread rolls, Little Gem lettuce and halved grape tomatoes, for serving

Steps:

Make the kebabs: Combine the turkey, vegetable oil, lemon zest, paprika and 1 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a large bowl; toss to coat.
Preheat a grill to medium. Thread the turkey onto six 12-inch skewers. Wrap 2 bacon slices around each skewer, overlapping slightly, to cover the turkey.
Brush the grill grates with vegetable oil. Grill the kebabs, turning often, until the turkey is cooked through and the bacon is crisp, about 25 minutes.
Meanwhile, make the dressing: Combine the mayonnaise, buttermilk, lemon juice and parsley in a small bowl; season with salt and pepper.
Serve the kebabs in rolls with lettuce and tomatoes; drizzle with the dressing.
