Step 1

Arrange a rack in the middle of the oven and heat to 450°F. Lightly grease a baking sheet with cooking spray.

Step 2

Dry the chicken on all sides with paper towels, then season with the salt and pepper.

Step 3

Arrange the chicken in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Spread the hummus over each chicken breast (about 1 tablespoon over each), spreading it into a thin layer until each breast is evenly and completely coated. Sprinkle the paprika over the hummus.

Step 4

Bake until the chicken is cooked through, completely opaque, and registers 165°F on an instant-read thermometer, about 20 minutes.

Step 5

Turn the oven to broil and broil the chicken until the hummus is dry to the touch and browned, about 3 minutes. Serve immediately.
