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.

Meat and Poultry

Directions

Step 1

Preheat an oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).

Step 2

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.

Step 3

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.

Step 4

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).
