Prep vegetables and chickpeas
Oven
Cutting Board
Colander
Can opener
Chef's knife

Preheat the oven to 425°F with racks in the upper and lower thirds. Line two 18-by-13-inch rimmed sheet pans with parchment rated for that temperature. Cut cauliflower into roughly 1-inch florets and onion into 1/2-inch wedges. Rinse, drain and thoroughly dry the chickpeas; halve the lemon.

Keep fingers clear of the knife blade while slicing the onion and halving the lemon.

Pat the chickpeas dry before roasting to reduce oil splatter.

1 Count red onion
1 1/2 pounds cauliflower
2 cans chickpeas

Season on two sheet pans
Spatula

Rimmed sheet pan

Divide the cauliflower, chickpeas, onion, oil, za’atar, salt and pepper evenly between the pans. Toss until coated and spread in a single layer.

1 1/2 pounds cauliflower
2 cans chickpeas
1 Count red onion
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons za'atar seasoning
1 teaspoon Kosher Salt
1/2 teaspoon Ground Black Pepper

Roast the filling
Oven
Spatula
Rimmed sheet pan
Oven mitts

Roast for 20 minutes, stir and swap racks, then roast for 10–15 minutes more, until the cauliflower is fully tender with browned edges and the chickpeas are lightly crisp. Use oven mitts to handle the pans.

Use oven mitts when handling the hot sheet pan.

Warm the pitas
Oven
Rimmed sheet pan
Oven mitts

Transfer the filling to a heatproof 4-quart bowl and cover. Arrange the pitas in a single layer on the emptied pans and warm for 2–3 minutes until pliable, following package directions if different. Watch closely so they do not dry out.

Keep the hot sheet pan on a heatproof surface when it comes out of the oven.

Assemble and serve
Spatula

Spread hummus inside the warm pita pockets and add filling without overstuffing. Divide everything evenly among the servings, with extra filling and hummus alongside. Squeeze lemon over the portions and serve warm.

Let the filling cool briefly before eating to avoid burns.
