In a food processor fitted with a blade attachment, add chickpeas, spinach, basil, tahini, olive oil, water, lemon juice, and salt and pepper. Process until smooth, about 2 minutes.
Scrape down the sides of the bowl. If the hummus seems too thick, add additional water as necessary. Process again and taste for seasoning.
Transfer to a bowl and garnish with paprika. Serve with fresh vegetables, pita chips, or crackers. Makes 1 3/4 cups.
