This is a fast, delicious weeknight dinner. Use any flavor of hummus that you prefer, but spicy works well for me. Serve with a side of rice.

Time 45m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 green bell pepper, chopped
1 onion, chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
½ cup prepared hummus
½ lemon, juiced
1 teaspoon paprika

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
  • Stir green bell pepper and onion together in the bottom of a 9-inch casserole dish. Drizzle olive oil over the vegetables; stir to coat.
  • Coat chicken breasts completely with a thin layer of hummus and place atop the vegetables. Drizzle lemon juice over the chicken and dust with paprika.
  • Cook chicken breasts in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 35 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
