Roasted Cauli Hummus Bowls Step 1

Hummus

Optional: Peel the skin off all your chickpeas. This takes a while (about 20 minutes) but results in THE SMOOTHEST HUMMUS of your life. After the optional peeling, place chickpeas in blender or food processor with the olive oil, garlic, salt, and lemon juice. Blend until very, very smooth.

What a brillant idea! This is a great option for some vegan company I'm having this weekend. I'll swap out tomatoes for red peppers (due to intolerance) and add roasted zucchini along with the cauliflower for extra colour.

thank you for this recipe!  this is day two of me having this meal for lunch.  the flavors of the roasted cauliflower were so so good - love this combination. I ended up stuffing the entire "bowl" mixture into a pita and eating it that way, as it was easier for me to keep all the toppings contained.  I added feta and green olives as well.

Looks like a good dish to make for my husband. Nice and healthy!

This was delicious for lunch today!  I took a shortcut and used hummus I already had.  Another great idea!!

I never had hummus with eggs — sounds like a wonderful idea!

wow, Awesome roasted cauliflower hummus bowls recipe. it's looks so delicious.

What a Great Thought! This is a great option for some vegan company I’m having this weekend. I’ll swap out tomatoes for red peppers (due to intolerance) and add roasted zucchini along with the cauliflower for extra color.

Um. Wow. This is one of the best recipes I’ve made in a long time. Thank you! I even made the sauce with almond yogurt because we don’t do dairy, and it was still amazing.

MMM love some cauliflower. Never thought of mixing it with hummus. Great and innovative recipe!

This was fabulous! Best homemade hummus ever!

Hummus Bowls with Easy Chicken Shawarma (or Roasted Veggie Shawarma!)

½ pounds boneless, skinless thighs (see Recipe Notes

hummus (see Recipe Notes)

½ cups cooked quinoa (½ cup dry cooked according to package directions)

feta, crumbled

honey (or pure maple syrup

½ lemon, juiced

garlic,

½ tsp ground cumin

½ tsp smoked paprika

cinnamon

ginger

oregano

turmeric

optional: ¼ – ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper,

Marinate the chicken

Place the chicken in a large Ziplock bag or baking dish. Add the olive oil, honey (or maple), lemon juice, garlic, cumin, smoked paprika, cinnamon, ginger, oregano, turmeric, cayenne, kosher salt, and ground black pepper. Toss to coat well. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or up to 3 days.

Roast the chicken shawarma

Preheat the oven to 425°F with one rack in the center and another 4–6 inches below the broiler. Line a baking sheet with foil for easy cleanup. Transfer the marinated chicken to the prepared baking sheet, shaking off any excess marinade. Roast for 15–18 minutes, or until nearly cooked through.

Broil to finish

Remove the chicken from the oven and preheat the broiler. Slice the chicken into thin strips, return to the baking sheet, and broil for 4–5 minutes, turning the pan halfway through, until caramelized and golden brown.

Assemble the hummus bowls

Add a generous spoonful of hummus to the bottom of a shallow bowl and swoop it with the back of a spoon. Add quinoa and sliced chicken shawarma. Top with pickled red onions, cucumbers, cabbage, feta, fresh basil, and any other toppings you love. Finish with a squeeze of lemon and a drizzle of olive oil. Enjoy!

Wowowowow! This recipe is Fantastic! The marinade is 🔥, the topping suggestions were perfect. My 2 and 5 year old kiddos absolutely scarfed this up. We did the chicken on the grill for ease and it turned out great. Thank you for an awesome, healthy and deeelish recipe! This one’s going in the rotation.

This recipe was outstanding. the marinade is so delicious. I can easily see me making this once a week. thank you.

This is a fabulous recipe that I have on rotation for meal prep. I've memorized the spice ratios and LOVE the added broiling method. SO flavorful!

This could possibly be my favorite meal. I have made it dozens of times now and always pass it on to others. I love it with homemade hummus and sourdough naan!

The spices/seasoning on the chicken in this dish are phenomenal. Everyone loves it. Thank you!

This was stupid tasty. I will absolutely be making this again! Highly recommend!

Back in my corporate days, my team frequented a fast-casual lunch spot in the downtown Minneapolis skyway for the most craveable hummus bowls with the freshest, puffiest pita bread I've ever tasted. It was one of my favorite lunches – life seriously doesn't get better than a bowl of creamy, dreamy hummus piled high with all kinds of toppings!

Eventually I figured out how to recreate it at home, and this Chicken Shawarma Hummus Bowl recipe is the result! It centers around my go-to sheet pan chicken shawarma, which is seasoned with the most delicious homemade spice blend and roasted-then-broiled to create the juicy-yet-crispy texture that makes authentic shawarma so craveable.  

Simply load it into a bowl over a big swoop of creamy hummus and whatever fixings you love, like grains, lettuce, fresh veggies, and pickled red onions for a colorful, flavorful, & fresh dinner for any night of the week!

This is one of my personal favorite recipes we've ever shared on PWWB. It's received countless 5-star reviews since it first went live in 2018, so I think it's pretty safe to say that PWWB readers love it just as much and I can't wait for you to try it! ♡ Happy cooking!
