Serve as a condiment with lamb or chicken. To shorten preparation time, substitute canned chickpeas for dried, and start at step 2.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Yield Makes 3 cups

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 pound dried chickpeas (about 1 1/4 cups), or 2 1/2 cups canned
2 1/4 teaspoons salt, plus more to taste
1/4 teaspoon cumin seeds, or 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1 clove garlic, peeled
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
4 small dried chiles, stemmed and finely chopped, or 3/4 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
1/2 cup oil-cured olives, pitted and coarsely chopped
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
Freshly ground black pepper
1 small bunch arugula

Steps:

  • Pick over dried chickpeas. Rinse and soak overnight in cold water with 1 teaspoon salt. Drain and rinse. Place chickpeas in a medium saucepan, and cover by several inches with fresh water. Bring to a boil, and skim off any foam. Turn heat down to medium, and simmer until tender, 35 to 45 minutes. Ten minutes before chickpeas are done, add 3/4 teaspoon salt. Remove from heat; let cool in cooking liquid for about 1 hour.
  • If using cumin seeds, toast in a dry pan over medium-low heat until they release their aroma, about 2 minutes. Let cool and grind to a powder in a spice grinder. Set aside.
  • Chop together 1/2 teaspoon salt, garlic, and 1/2 teaspoon olive oil to form a paste. Add chiles; chop to combine. Transfer to a small bowl, and add remaining oil.
  • Drain soaked chickpeas. (If using canned chickpeas, rinse.) Combine with 1 teaspoon chile mixture or to taste. Add olives, cumin, lemon juice, and salt and pepper to taste. Refrigerate until ready to serve. The salsa can be made a day ahead (return to room temperature before serving).
  • Just before serving, coarsely chop arugula, and toss with salsa.

CHICK PEA (GARBANZO) SALSA



Chick Pea (Garbanzo) Salsa image

Came up with this one myself after staring into the pantry for awhile awaiting inspiration to find me. Hubby and I both liked the result, so thought I would share. It's a quick, easy combination that can be used as a zesty side salad, a chunky "salsa" or a smooth hummus-like dip or spread. Depending on your chosen texture serve on the side, with tortilla chips and/or raw veggies. Parsley or cilantro or powdered cumin to taste can be added for variation. The addition of some green color is especially nice if preparing the side salad option. ENJOY!!

Time 1h40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 15-ounce can chickpeas
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 pita bread rounds, torn
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Kosher salt
1/4 cup tahini
Squeeze of fresh lemon juice
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
8 cups fresh spinach or other greens
2 cups grape tomatoes, quartered
1/2 English cucumber, sliced
1/2 red onion, chopped
3 radishes, thinly sliced
1/4 cup fresh mint, chopped
1 cup crumbled feta cheese (about 4 ounces)
2 teaspoons za'atar seasoning

Steps:

  • Roast the chickpeas: Drain, rinse and pat dry the chickpeas; let sit 30 minutes on a paper towel-lined plate to let them dry out. Preheat the oven to 350˚ F. Dump the chickpeas onto a rimmed baking sheet. Toss with the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast, tossing occasionally, until crisp and dry, about 50 minutes. Let cool.
  • While the chickpeas cool, bake the croutons: Toss the pita pieces with the butter and a pinch of salt on another baking sheet. Bake until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Let cool. (You can store the chickpeas and the croutons in separate containers at room temperature for up to 4 days.)
  • Make the dressing: Mix the tahini, lemon juice and 3 to 4 tablespoons water in a bowl until creamy and pourable. Season with salt and pepper. (You can put the dressing in a cute jar and store it in the fridge for up to 5 days. If it gets too thick to pour, mix in a little water before using.)
  • Make the salad: Combine the spinach, tomatoes, cucumber, onion, radishes and mint in a large bowl. Add the feta, za'atar, dressing and chickpeas and gently toss. Top with the croutons.
