Best 9 Chick Peas And Swiss Chard Recipes

CHICKPEAS WITH CHARD

Steps:

• Chop 1 bunch Swiss chard. Saute the stems with 1 each chopped onion and red jalapeno in olive oil over medium-high heat until softened, 3 minutes; season with salt. Add one 15-ounce can chickpeas (drained, liquid reserved); cook, stirring, 3 minutes. Add 2 minced garlic cloves; cook 30 seconds. Add the chard leaves along with the chickpea liquid and 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin; simmer until the chard wilts. Stir in the juice of 1/2 lemon.

SHAKSHUKA WITH CHICKPEAS AND SWISS CHARD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400˚ F. Add the eggs (in their shells) to a large bowl of warm water and set aside. This will bring the eggs to room temperature and make for more even cooking.
• Heat the olive oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until softened, 6 to 7 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook until softened, about 1 minute. Add the harissa, cumin, 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper; toss to coat the onion. Add the cherry tomatoes, chickpeas with their liquid and 1/4 cup water. Increase the heat to medium high, stir to combine and bring to a simmer. Add the Swiss chard in batches, stirring until wilted before adding more. Continue cooking until slightly thickened, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• Remove the eggs from the water and crack them into a bowl or large spouted measuring cup. Make 8 wells in the tomato mixture and gently slip 1 egg into each well.
• Transfer the skillet to the oven. Bake until the egg whites are fully set and firm to the touch, 8 to 12 minutes. Meanwhile, put the bread on a baking sheet and toast in the oven until browned, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Top the shakshuka with the parsley. Divide among shallow bowls or plates; serve with the bread and more harissa.

Add 1/2 teaspoon salt and the leek. Continue to cook, stirring often, until tender, about three minutes. Add the garlic, stir for about a minute, and then stir in the water, tomato paste and the bouquet garni. Bring to a simmer. Add salt to taste, reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer 30 minutes. Stir in the chickpeas. Taste and adjust salt. Remove the bouquet garni.
• Add the Swiss chard and the pasta to the soup, bring back to a simmer, and simmer another 10 minutes or until the pasta is cooked al dente. Grind in some pepper, taste and adjust seasonings.

MOROCCAN CHICKPEAS WITH CHARD

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large pot over high heat. Add onion and jalapeño and sauté until limp, 3 minutes. Add garlic, ginger, salt, turmeric, paprika, cinnamon, cumin, black pepper and cayenne and sauté until they release their fragrance, about 2 minutes. Add tomato paste and sauté for another minute, until darkened but not burned. (If tomato paste looks too dark too quickly, lower heat.)
• Add fennel, chard stems, carrot and turnip and continue to sauté until vegetables start to soften, about 10 minutes. Add chickpeas and water to barely cover.
• Return heat to high if you lowered it and bring to a simmer. Partly cover pot, lower heat to medium low, and simmer for about 1 1/2 to 2 hours, until chickpeas are softened. Add more water if needed (this should be like a stew).
• Add chard leaves, apricots and preserved lemon to pot and continue simmering until chard is tender, about 5 minutes longer. Season with more salt if desired, and serve garnished with cilantro and reserved fennel fronds.
