Chipotle Hummus with Tajin image

A friend of mine has a Mediterranean food truck called Pitas Bites at my beer garden in Houston, Texas, Rosehill Beer Garden, and I swear, he makes the best hummus I've ever had. Imported olive oil helps him keep his menu as authentic as he can. Over time, he has shared a few of his recipes, but his hummus stays under lock and key. I've tried at least a dozen times to no avail to crack the code, and so I decided to create my own sacred hummus recipe with a little Tex-Mex flair, but instead of keeping it top secret, I am sharing it here with you.

Time 10m

Yield 3 cups (720 milliliters)

Number Of Ingredients 9

Two 15-ounce (425-gram) cans chickpeas, drained and canning liquid reserved
1/2 cup (120 milliliters) tahini
Juice of 1 large lemon
1 tablespoon adobo sauce, from canned chipotle peppers in adobo
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 1/4 teaspoons garlic salt with parsley, such as Lawry's
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup (60 milliliters) extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
Tajin seasoning, for serving

Steps:

  • In a food processor, pulse the chickpeas 2 to 3 times just to begin breaking down the beans. Add the tahini, lemon juice, adobo sauce, cumin, garlic salt, and black pepper. Pulse 2 to 3 times more to incorporate the ingredients.
  • Continue to pulse as you slowly add the chickpea liquid, then the olive oil, until the hummus is smooth and creamy with no visible sign of whole chickpeas.
  • Transfer the hummus to a serving bowl, drizzle with more olive oil, and sprinkle with the Tajin seasoning before serving. Leftovers will keep, covered and refrigerated, for 3 to 5 days.

I'm allergic to chickpeas, so I used white beans instead. The hummus turned out just as delicious!

I didn't have any Tajin seasoning, so I used a mixture of chili powder and lime juice instead. It worked out great!

The chipotle hummus was a bit too runny for my taste. I think I'll try adding less liquid next time.

I found the instructions to be a bit confusing. I think it would be helpful to include some step-by-step photos.

This hummus is a bit too spicy for my taste, but I think it would be perfect for someone who enjoys a little heat.

I'm not a big fan of spicy food, but even I enjoyed this hummus. The Tajin seasoning really mellows out the heat of the chipotle peppers.

This chipotle hummus with Tajin was a hit at my last party! The smoky flavor of the chipotle peppers paired perfectly with the tangy Tajin seasoning.
