I have a great recipe for you today. It's simple, healthy, and really say to make! Roasted chickpeas make a great snack or even a side dish.
Here is how to make this delicious treat:
Ingredients:- 1 can of chickpeas
- 2 Tsp of Garlic Powder
- 2 Tsp of Italian Spice Blend
- 1 1/2 Tbsp of Roasted Garlic Olive Oil
- Squeeze of fresh lemon juice
- Salt to taste
- Pepper to taste
Cookware Needed:
- 1 baking tray
- two medium sized bowls
- Measuring spoons
- Colander
- Whisk
Step 1:
Start by preheating your oven to 450 degrees. Next, open your can of chickpeas and pour them into the colander. Rinse well, then put the washed chickpeas into one of your bowls. Then put the bowl
aside.
Step 2:
Next, take your garlic powder, Italian spice blend, roasted garlic olive oil, and lemon, and whisk them in your other bowl. It should look something like this. **Keep in mind, you can substitute for other spices. I know that thyme, and paprika work well too!
Step 3:
Then, take your chickpeas and pour them into the mix from step number 2. Make sure the chickpeas are coated well. They should look like this. **Keep in mind, you can add more spices or lemon if you feel it is lacking in flavour. This is just my preference.
Step 4:
Place your coated chickpeas on a baking tray and place in the oven for 30-40 minutes, depending on how crispy you want them. I usually put mine in for 35 minutes, so they are still slightly soft, but have nice outer crunch!
Step 5:
Add salt and black pepper to taste! Do this as soon as they come out of the oven. This way, the salt and pepper absorb into the hot chickpeas.
And last but not least..... ENJOY!!!!!
I hope you've enjoyed this quick little recipe. Fast, easy, simple......what's not to love!
