Jalapeno Hummus
Report
Here's an easy way to make a fiery batch of Jalapeno Hummus! Giving it a burst of jalapeno-lime-cilantro flavor is a welcome update to a classic dish.
Share:
Ingredients
- 2 cans chickpeas aka garbanzo beans
- 3-5 jalapeños
- juice of lime
- 15-20 prigs cilantro
- 5 garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup tahini
- black pepper freshly cracked
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- splash of water
Instructions
- Start by prepping all of the ingredients. Peel the garlic cloves and give the jalapenos and cilantro a good rinse. I typically twist off and discard the bottom, thicker portion of the cilantro stems, but use the upper stems that hold the leaves together. I also usually drain and rinse the chickpeas before using them.
- Add all of the ingredients to a blender or food processor and combine well. Take a take for seasoning and heat level. I added an extra jalapeno (four total) and another generous pinch of salt to this batch.
- Serve immediately and store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge.
- If you want to serve it with a cheese quesadilla, simply add cheese to half of a flour tortilla, fold onto itself, and crisp it up in a dry skillet over medium-high heat. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side or until it is turning golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Notes
- Using three jalapenos will give your Hummus medium zip. For a milder version start with 1-2 jalapenos. After doing some taste testing you can always plop another jalapeno in the blender to add more heat.
- You can always substitute serranos for the jalapenos if that's all you have available. Serrano vs. Jalapeno: What's the Difference?
