Shape the mixture into 28 balls. Mold each ball around the tip of a skewer, pressing it into a 2-inch oval shape. Repeat with the remaining skewers. Place the kebabs on a baking sheet, cover, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 12 hours.

Preheat your outdoor grill to medium heat and lightly grease the grill grate.
Grill the skewers on the preheated grill, turning occasionally, until they are browned and fully cooked, about 5 to 6 minutes. Use an instant-read thermometer to check the center of a kebab—it should reach at least 145°F (63°C).
