Chicken Hummus Bowls

Spiced chicken, ready fast, with veggies and a pita.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 3 tbsp olive oil, divided
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • ¼ tsp cayenne
  • ¼ tsp salt, divided
  • 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 cups hummus
  • 1 english cucumber, halved lengthwise and sliced
  • 1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
  • ¼ cup slivered red onion
  • ¼ cup chopped fresh parsley

Steps

  1. Position rack in upper third of oven; preheat broiler to high. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.
  2. Toss chicken with 1 tablespoon oil, 1 teaspoon cumin, 1 teaspoon paprika, ¼ teaspoon cayenne and ⅛ teaspoon salt. Spread evenly on the prepared pan. Broil until just cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes.
