Servings: 4
- 1 red bell pepper
- 1 (19 fluid ounce) can chickpeas drained
- 2 tablespoons sriracha sauce
- Juice from 1/2 lemon
- 1 heaping tablespoon tahini
- 1 clove garlic
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- Salt & pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup olive oil
Pre-heat oven to 400F (move rack close to top) and line a baking sheet with tin foil for easy clean-up. Cut your bell pepper in half and take out the seeds/stem. Place the two pepper halves on the baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes on each side.
Meanwhile, add all other ingredients except for olive oil into your food processor.
Once the pepper is cooked (should be charred around the edges), let it cool for five minutes and then add it to your food processor.
Blend everything together on high while slowly drizzling in the olive oil. Once the oil is drizzled in, stop to scrape down the sides and blend for an additional minute or two until the hummus is smoother and creamy.
Refrigerate for an hour or so until hummus is chilled.
