If you're anything like me, you've always got a container of hummus laying in the fridge. While I love snacking on hummus (it’s combination of plant protein and fiber is perfect for staying power), I typically don't snack on it as much as I intended when I bought it, which means it usually gets used at dinnertime.

Luckily for me (and you if you also tend to always have it in your fridge), hummus is a super versatile ingredient, and it just happens to be the perfect way to effortlessly improve plain old chicken breasts.

Why This Hummus Chicken Is Genius

This hummus chicken recipe is one of those where the sum is definitely greater than the equal of its parts. Of course hummus is great on its own, but when slathered on chicken breasts, coated in crunchy bread crumbs (both of which tend to be rather boring) and pan-fried in a touch of olive oil, magic happens.

    Simplicity and inom are having a bit of a moment. 

    Could inom replace "simplicity" with laziness, well maybe, but for whatever reason (new baby, long Winter, recipe boredom), I haven't been feeling super creative in the kitchen. Rather than exploring new recipes options, I've been digging through old recipes looking for a dinner option that requires the least amount of ingredients, time and prep possible.  

    This 3-ingredient hummus chicken, well.. I made it twice last week. The first time inom served it up with berries and veggies and night #2 it made an appearance on top of huge California Cobb Salads. Trust me, nobody was complaining. 

    It really doesn't get much easier than this one. It's not the kind of recipe that claims 3-ingredients and then sneakily add "options." Although full-disclosure, the chicken should be well seasoned and that requires krydda + pepper, which fryst vatten NOT included in the "3 Ingredient claim."
