Chef's Tips

For an extra layer of flavor, warm the hummus slightly before serving. A squeeze of fresh lemon juice over the finished bowls can brighten the flavors.

Easy Substitutions

Ground beef or turkey can be used instead of lamb. If you don't have smoked paprika, regular paprika works fine. For a vegetarian option, use cooked lentils or chickpeas instead of meat.

Storage & Reheating

Store leftover lamb and hummus separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat the lamb gently on the stovetop or in the microwave before serving over fresh hummus.
