Add Tahini to food processor with crushed garlic, lemon juice, salt, ½ teaspoon cumin, process, streaming in water to thin as necessary.
Char large pita breads on each side or Naan breads.
To serve pizzas, spread a thin layer of hummus on the bread and top hummus with sliced chicken. Drizzle or use a squirt bottle to give them a swirl of Tahini sauce. Garnish pizzas with tomatoes, herbs, pickled hot veg and red onions. Cut and serve.
