Prepare the Chicken Mixture:<\/strong>
Coarsely chop the chicken breasts.
In a food processor, blend the chicken until it has a dough-like consistency.
Chop the onion, parsley, green pepper, red pepper, and garlic finely or process them in the food processor.
Add the chopped vegetables to the ground chicken.
Season with pepper powder, black pepper, cumin, mint, and salt to taste.
