Jun 26, 2023
"This delicious and easy-to-cook cut of chicken is perfect for a quick weeknight meal. The chicken is simply seasoned with a mix of dry spices and can be cooked in under 15 minutes in your oven, toaster oven, or air fryer. The sautéed onions are a wonderful addition that elevates the dish while still keeping things quick and easy. Hummus pairs perfectly with the chicken and can be made in under 5 minutes." -- Brad
