Cooking Steps
- Before starting, preheat the oven to 450°F.
- Wash and dry all produce.
- Peel, then halve carrot lengthwise. Cut into 1/4-inch half-moons.
- Peel, halve, then thinly slice onion.
- Cut tomato into 1/2-inch pieces.
- Drain, then roughly chop olives.
- Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
- In a large bowl, combine chicken, half the panko (use all for 4 servings), Shawarma Spice Blend, half the garlic and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) salt. (TIP: If you prefer more tender meatballs, add an egg to mixture.)
- Roll mixture into 8 (16) equal-sized meatballs.
- To one side of a parchment-lined baking sheet, add carrots and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat.
- On the other side of the baking sheet, arrange meatballs.
- Roast in the middle of the oven 10-12 min, until carrots are golden and meatballs are cooked through.**
- Meanwhile, to a small pot, add onions, vinegar, 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) water and 2 tsp (4 tsp) sugar.
- Season with salt. Bring to a simmer over medium-high.
- Once simmering, cook for 1-2 min, stirring often, until sugar dissolves.
- Remove from heat. To a medium bowl, transfer onions, including pickling liquid.
- To a small bowll, add mayo, hummus, 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) garlic and 2 tsp (4 tsp) water. Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine. Set aside.
- In another large bowl, whisk together 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) pickling liquid and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil.
- Add spring mix and tomatoes, then toss to combine.
- Drain pickled onions and discard remaining pickling liquid.
- Divide salad between plates, then top with olives, carrots, meatballs and pickled onions.
- Drizzle creamy hummus dressing over top.
