Hummus Crusted Chicken - #3 from TS Eatwell Product Pack



Talk about easy!  I put this together this morning while my breakfast was cooking.  Hubby cooked it on the grill this evening.  Moist, tender, yummy!

I did a few modifications.  I used Avocado Oil instead of olive oil.  I also used Garlic Pepper Seasoning instead of regular salt and pepper.  We left out the red onion and the paprika (we don't like the heat of the onions and my husband can't handle too much spice).  The package of frozen vegetables was smaller so I added fresh broccoli to make up the difference (I think next time I will use fresh vegetables only & maybe add rice as well).

You can make adjustments/substitutions yourself as well.  When we cooked it on the grill, we used the time as a guide but made sure the chicken was at the internal temperature.

This makes 6 servings, so we froze the leftovers.

Ingredients:


6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 tsp + 1/2 tsp salt, divided
1/2 tsp + 1/4 tsp pepper, divided
16 oz pkg frozen California Blend vegetables
1 Tbsp lemon juice
1/2 c chopped red onion
1 Tbsp + 1/4 c olive oil, divided
15-16 oz can chickpeas, drained (reserve 1/3 c liquid)
1 packet Red Bell Pepper Hummus Mix
1/2-1 tsp paprika

Assembly Instructions:  Season chicken with 1 tsp salt & 1/2 tsp pepper.  Place in a gallon resealable freezer bag.  In another gallon resealable freezer bag put the vegetables, remaining salt & pepper, lemon juice, onion, and 1 Tbsp olive oil.  In a quart resealable freezer bag combine the chickpeas with reserved liquid, remaining olive oil and Red Bell Pepper Hummus mix.  Squish ingredients to mash.  Place all bags together in a gallon resealable freezer bag.  Seal well, label and freeze.

Cooking Instructions:  Thaw completely.  Preheat oven to 400 degrees.  In greased 9x13 baking pan, place vegetables, then chicken breasts.  Divide the hummus over the chicken breasts; sprinkle with paprika.  Cover with foil and bake 30 minutes; uncover and bake an additional 20-25 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees.
