Spicy chickpea and roasted poblano pepper hummus served with crispy homemade pita chips.
Ingredients
- 3 whole Pitas
- 1 whole Poblano Chile Pepper
- 1 can (15 Oz. Size) Cannellini Beans, Drained And Rinsed
- 3 cloves Garlic, Minced
- 1-½ teaspoon Kosher Salt
- ⅓ cups Fresh Lemon Juice
- ¼ cups Tahini
- 2 Tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil For Drizzling
Preparation
1. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Stack the pitas on your cutting board and cut each into 8 wedges. Separate the wedges and arrange in even layers on two large rimmed baking sheet. Spray the wedges with nonstick cooking spray. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until golden and crisp. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
2. Preheat the broiler. Place the poblano chile on a small rimmed baking sheet. Broil for 10 to 15 minutes, turning the chile occasionally, until charred on all sides. Transfer the chile to a small resealable bag, seal the bag and let it rest for 20 minutes. When cool enough to handle, peel the chile pepper, remove the stem and seeds, and roughly chop.
3. Combine the poblano chile, chickpeas, garlic, salt, lemon juice, and tahini in the bowl of a food processor and process until smooth. Transfer the hummus to a serving bowl and drizzle the top with the olive oil. Serve with the pita chips for dipping.
