Preparation
Prepare the chicken & potatoes
Preheat the oven to 450°F. Medium-dice the potatoes. On a lined sheet pan, toss with a drizzle of oil, ½ the spices and S&P. Pat the chicken dry with paper towel; season with S&P. In a medium bowl, combine the hummus, a drizzle of oil and the remaining spices. Add the chicken; toss well. Add to the pan.
Roast the chicken & potatoes
Roast the chicken and potatoes, flipping the potatoes halfway, 20 to 25 min., until the chicken* is cooked through and the potatoes are tender. Switch the oven to broil, 3 to 5 min., until browned.
Mise en place
Meanwhile, roughly chop the lettuce. Thinly slice the radishes. Cut off the top and bottom of the orange so it sits flat on your cutting board; cut away the peel and white pith. Thinly slice, then quarter. Thinly slice the scallion crosswise, separating the white bottom and green top.
Make the vinaigrette
In a large bowl, combine the vinegar, white bottom of the scallion, 5 tbsp oil (double for 4 portions) and S&P.
Make the salad
To the bowl of vinaigrette, add the lettuce, radishes, orange and green top of the scallion; toss well.
Plate your dish
Divide the chicken (slice beforehand if desired) and potatoes between your plates. Serve the salad on the side. Bon appétit!
*Health Canada recommends cooking poultry to a minimum internal temperature of 74°C.
