The spiced chicken atop these bowls is ready fast with the help of the broiler. Serve with warm whole-wheat pita for scooping up extra hummus at the bottom of the bowl.

Seems like a lot of stuff is missing. I agree there is nowhere about what to do with the Aleppo pepper. Cucumber is also not listed as an ingredient. Good dish but had to improvise on how to fix it.

Um, I don't see in the recipe where the Aleppo pepper is used....

This recipe is excellent. The whole family loves it. Two of us have high blood pressure and it's nice to be able to enjoy healthy foods that don't contribute to further health problems. I didn't make any changes to the recipe. I will be making it again and again since it is a new favorite in the house. Thank you!

I've made this multiple times and it's such a well balanced and delicious meal. Great dish for gym rats, high protein!

Tip: Make your own Hummus

I followed the recipe except for two items. 1 - I grilled the chicken because it's summer here. 2 - I used 3oz of hummus per bowl. Chicken was really tasty. I will make this again.
