Hummus Crusted Chicken

Recipe by Gimme Some Oven

Ingredients

• 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs/breast
• sea salt, to taste
• black pepper, to taste
• 1 medium zucchini, chopped
• 1 medium yellow squash, chopped
• 1 medium onion, chopped
• 1 cup hummus
• 1 tbsp coconut oil, melted
• 2 medium lemons
• 1 tsp paprika
• 1 tbsp of coconut oil

Directions

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• Coat (lightly) one baking dish with coconut or oil. Get some on your hands and rub it in, it's free lotion!
• Season the chicken breast/thighs with generous pinches of sea salt and pepper.
• In a large bowl, toss the zucchini, squash and onion with coconut oil until evenly coated. Season with salt and pepper.
• If using one baking dish, place all of the vegetables on the bottom of the dish in an even layer and season with salt and pepper. Yes, again.
• Lay the chicken evenly on top, then cover each chicken breast/thighs with the hummus so that the entire breast is covered. You know, we like our ladies covered.
• Squeeze the juice of one lemon over the chicken and veggies.
• Then top the dish with smoked paprika.
• Thinly slice the remaining lemon, and place the slices in between the chicken and veggies if desired.
• Bake for about 35 to 45 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.
