Hummus with chicken
2 servings
60 minutes
This is how hummus is prepared in the Moscow hummusia "Abu Ghosh". It is better to take thigh fillet - it has more flavor, fat and juices. It will be more boring with chicken breast. The fillet should be cut into strips, but you can also cut it into random pieces, if this is more convenient. Then fry it in sunflower oil over medium heat until done. Put the finished fillet on hot hummus and sprinkle with spices on top. There are a lot of spices here - you don't need to be afraid of this, they are selected in such a way that the taste of chicken and the taste of hummus remain in place , it just becomes a little more complex. This is a hot hearty snack, if you eat this hummus with a flatbread, you get a full lunch
