Steps:
- Preheat an oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
- Stir green bell pepper and onion together in the bottom of a 9-inch casserole dish. Drizzle olive oil over the vegetables; stir to coat.
- Coat chicken breasts completely with a thin layer of hummus and place atop the vegetables. Drizzle lemon juice over the chicken and dust with paprika.
- Cook chicken breasts in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 35 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

RED PEPPER HUMMUS
You know those days when you had no idea you were having people for dinner and then that phone call comes mid-afternoon? Well, this is the quickly assembled first course that can turn a plain roast chicken, or anything else you think you can stretch for four people without much effort, into a dinner party. And actually, whenever you have to cook without time for planning, I think a roast chicken is nearly always the main course you need: It's much easier to come up with frills for before and after and alongside than to construct a fancy dinner party dish last minute. This can be in dollops on crostini (and you can buy baby toasts ready-made for the purpose in an Italian deli) or eaten as a dip and it even serves as a rather intriguing, gorgeously hued sauce for plain grilled meats.

Steps:
- In an electric blender or food processor, puree the chickpeas, red peppers, lemon juice, tahini, garlic, cumin, cayenne, and salt. Process, using long pulses, until the mixture is fairly smooth, and slightly fluffy. Make sure to scrape the mixture off the sides of the food processor or blender in between pulses. Transfer to a serving bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. (The hummus can be made up to 3 days ahead and refrigerated. Return to room temperature before serving.)
- Sprinkle the hummus with the chopped parsley before serving.

Tips:
- To save time, buy pre-cut chicken strips or use a food processor to quickly cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces. - For a crispy coating, double-coat the chicken in the flour mixture. - Use a large skillet or wok to ensure that the chicken has enough space to cook evenly without overcrowding. - Cook the chicken over medium-high heat to ensure that it cooks quickly and evenly. - Do not stir the chicken too often while cooking, as this can prevent it from getting crispy. - Serve the pepper chicken with hummus immediately, as this will help to keep the chicken crispy.Conclusion:
This pepper chicken with hummus is a quick and easy recipe that is perfect for a busy weeknight meal. The chicken is crispy and flavorful, and the hummus adds a creamy and tangy contrast. This dish is also a great way to use up leftover chicken. Serve it with rice, pita bread, or your favorite sides.
