Ingredients
- 3-4 chicken breasts
- 2/3 cup hummus
- 3 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
- 1 package of seasoned couscous (I used leftover orzo from another night)
- pinch of salt
- pinch of garlic powder
- pinch of pepper
- Tomato (I didn’t use)
- Red Onion (I didn’t have)
Instructions
- Cook the couscous as per the instructions on the box. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, add hummus, olive oil, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Mix together until smooth.
- Coat each chicken breast thoroughly in the hummus mixture. Set each piece in your pan.
- Cover each piece of chicken with a layer of the prepared couscous.
- Pat down the couscous so it forms a solid and tight shell covering all of the chicken.
- Place sliced tomato and red onion on top (about 3 pieces of tomato per chicken breast and a few slices of onion).
- All of the chicken should be covered, to the point that it looks like a giant pile of couscous. Make sure that you press the couscous down, because it is going to form almost a "crust" on the outside of the chicken
- 5. Bake in a 400 degree oven for about 30-40 minutes.
- Cut into the chicken after about 30 mins (this can be a little difficult with all the couscous), but often times it needs about 40 mins. to cook.
