Steps:
- Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Rub all over with the za'atar and 1 tablespoon olive oil; set aside.
- Toast the pine nuts in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, stirring, until golden, 3 to 5 minutes. Season with salt and remove to a small bowl.
- Return the skillet to medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add the chicken and cook until browned on the bottom, about 5 minutes. Flip, reduce the heat to medium and continue cooking until the chicken is cooked through, 8 to 10 more minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest.
- Meanwhile, halve the cucumbers lengthwise and slice 1/2 inch thick. Combine in a large bowl with the watermelon, remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, the lemon juice and mint; season with salt and pepper and toss.
- Stir the hummus and yogurt in a small bowl; spoon onto plates. Slice the chicken and place on top of the hummus. Drain off any excess liquid from the cucumber-watermelon salad and add to the plates. Sprinkle with the pine nuts and more za'atar.

GRILLED ZA'ATAR CHICKEN
Most recipes using za'atar seasoning often incorporate fresh herbs which give the seasoning a green color. I chose to use dry herbs to give a consistent flavor. Most companies now make za'atar seasoning so feel free to use 2 tablespoons za'atar seasoning from Savory Spice Shop® (or other purveyor) or create your own.

Steps:
- Combine cumin, sumac powder, sesame seeds, salt, thyme, oregano, and marjoram in a 1-gallon resealable plastic bag. Add grapeseed oil and lemon juice; mix to combine. Add chicken breast, mix with seasoning, and marinate for 30 minutes.
- Spray the grate of the grill with cooking spray, and preheat the grill to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C).
- Grill chicken breasts, flipping halfway, until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 7 to 8 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
