This recipe is a quick and easy recipe with a slightly middle eastern flavour. Chick Peas are such a versatile ingredient and they give a very distinct and appealing favour to everything you add them to so it makes sense to let them be a main flavouring to this chicken recipe! When you mix the steamed veges into that sauce - DELICIOUS!

Awesome easy recipe! Whipped it up in 15min – I cheated and used store bought hommus. Served with brown rice for post-workout meal and have the leftovers for work lunches! Highly recommend
I was a little hesitant to try this one, but it was delicious – for those that like a bit of heat, may I suggest some cayenne pepper in the sauce.
Delish, especially served with a pile of steamed veggies to sop up the sauce. I prepared the hummus sauce the night before to simplify the meal prep on the day. Another highly recommended meal.
