Ingredients
- 1 pound boneless skinless chicken thighs (trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces)
- 3 tablespoons olive oil (extra-virgin, divided)
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon salt, divided
- 3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice, fresh
- 2 cups hummus (I used store-bought plain hummus)
- 1 cucumber ( English cucumber, halved lengthwise and sliced)
- 1 pint tomatoes (cherry tomatoes, halved)
- 1/4 to 1/2 cup red onion (slivered, I prefer a lot of red onion)
- 1/4 cup chopped parsley (fresh)
How to Make
-
Step 1: Position oven rack to upper third of oven and preheat the broiler to high.
-
Step 2: Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.
-
Step 3: Toss the chicken cubes with 1 T of the oil, cumin, paprika, cayenne, and 1/8 t. of the salt. Spread evenly over the foil-lined pan. Broil the chicken until just cooked through - approx. 7-10 min. (I think I broiled mine a bit longer than the 10 min. because I wanted my chicken to be well-browned - use your judgement.)
-
Step 4: Meanwhile, mash the garlic with the remaining 1/8 t. of salt into a paste using a fork. Transfer this to a medium-sized bowl and whisk in the lemon juice and the remaining 2 T. of the oil. Add the chicken and let it sit for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
-
Step 5: Divide the hummus into 4 shallow bowls. Tope with the chicken and any remaining dressing from the bowl. Artfully arrange the the remaining ingredients: cucumber, tomatoes, red onion, and parsley.

Step 6: Enjoy!
