    Too much raw onion for me! πŸ˜‚ Next time I’ll skip that. Otherwise, decent!

    Why do people put mint in chicken? That’s just weird. I changed it to basil and it was fine.

    Didn’t turn out as expected. The chicken was dry after grilling. Anyone got tips?

      Maybe you overcooked it? Try not to grill too long next time! Chicken needs juicy.

    Eh, it was just okay. The chicken was a bit dry for my taste.

    Delicious! I added extra tomatoes and it was yummmmy. Definitely making this again!

      I dunno, I think extra tomatoes might make it too soggy. Did you really like it that much?

      So glad to hear! Extra tomatoes sound like a great idea. I might try that too next time!

    Yummm! Super easy and quick! Grill chicken is my go-to!

      Looks good, but why do they need so many spices? Can’t you just grill the chicken as is?

    2. User avatar lenard.borer says:

      Totally agree! The spices make it so flavorful. Love this recipe!

    I ain’t got time to grill chicken. Tried it in a pan and it turned out fine. Still tasted good.

      But grilling gives a smoky flavor that you can’t replicate in a pan! You should try it sometime.

    2. 4 stars
      Grilling is overrated! Pan-frying is just as good. Besides, who has time for all that? πŸ‘

    I think 8 mins is too long for grilling. I overcooked mine and it was tough. Next time I’ll try 5-6 mins.

    I don’t think this recipe is very authentic… where’s the tahini for the hummus? Kinda confused.

    Who eats this bowl thing? Are we in some fancy restaurant or what? I just want my grilled chicken with rice.

    I don’t know about this. Seems like too much cumin. My husband doesn’t like it but I kinda do. Mixed feelings.

    Loved it! I did it with beef instead, and it was still good. Pretty flexible recipe.

    I tried it but didn’t have all the spices, so it was kinda bland. Maybe next time I’ll follow the recipe better.

      I feel you! Sometimes I skip spices too, but they really make a difference. Don’t be too hard on yourself. Just give it another shot with all the ingredients next time!

    Hummus and chicken together? Who thought of this? I don’t get it…

    1. User avatar agatha.gutkowski60 says:

      5 stars
      I think it’s a great combo! Hummus gives flavor and chicken makes it filling. Perfect meal! πŸ˜‹

      Uhh, why would anyone wanna mix those?? Hummus is for pita, not chicken… just saying.

    Just OK. The hummus tasted store-bought. Try making it yourself for better results!

    1. User avatar Arthur Philip Deodat says:

      I totally agree! Homemade hummus is way better! I make mine with garlic and tahini, gives it a nice kick!

    Not a fan of hummus but the chicken was delicious! Maybe I’ll try it again with a different dip.

      It sounds great and all, but is it really as simple as it seems? I worry about grilling chicken. What if it gets dry? πŸ€”

      I totally agree! This recipe is such a hit! I made it last weekend, and everyone was raving about it. Definitely saving this one! 😊

    Not bad. The chicken was juicy, but I think it needed more flavor. I added some lemon juice.

    1. 3 stars
      Honestly, I thought the spices were perfect. Maybe you just don’t like strong flavors? But lemon is a great idea!

    2. User avatar Ms. Denny Conn says:

      I think the chickin needed more than just lemon! Try adding some garlic and onion powder next time. It really makes a difference.

  26. User avatar Michael83 says:
