PINTO BEAN HUMMUS WITH CHICKEN CHICHARRONES

Steps:

• For the hummus: Combine the garlic, peppers, tahini, lemon juice, pinto beans, 3/4 tablespoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper in a food processor. Turn the machine on and drizzle in the olive oil through the feed tube. Puree until very smooth.
• For the chicken chicharrones: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Lay the chicken skin out flat in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake until slightly crispy and most of the fat has rendered, 20 minutes.
• Heat the oil to 325 degrees F in a deep, heavy pot or cast-iron skillet (see Cook's Note). Place a few skins at a time into the hot oil and fry until golden brown and crispy, about 4 minutes per side. Using tongs, transfer the skin to a paper towel-lined baking sheet. Season with salt while hot.
