Categories     side-dish

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.

Provided by Kiwi Kathy

Categories     Vegetable

Time 13m

Yield 4 serves, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 (400 g) cans chickpeas, drained and rinsed
2 tomatoes, medium, roughly chopped
4 spring onions, thinly sliced
1 chili, red deseeded and thinly sliced
4 tablespoons coriander leaves, roughly chopped
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 garlic clove, crushed
2 tablespoons olive oil
salt and pepper, to taste
pita bread, grilled and cut into thin fingers

Steps:

  • Combine first 5 ingredients in a shallow bowl.

  • Pour over salad, cover and leave for 10 minutes at room temperature for the flavours to mingle.
  • Serve with grilled Pita bread fingers.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chickpeas: Use canned or dried chickpeas that have been soaked and cooked. Avoid using canned chickpeas that have been packed in salt or sugar.
  • Rinse the chickpeas: Before using, rinse the chickpeas thoroughly with cold water to remove any excess starch.
  • Chop the vegetables: Chop the vegetables into small, even pieces so that they cook evenly.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: Don't be afraid to experiment with different vegetables. Some good options include tomatoes, cucumbers, bell peppers, and carrots.
  • Add some herbs and spices: Herbs and spices can help to add flavor to the salad. Some good options include cilantro, parsley, mint, cumin, and chili powder.
  • Don't overcook the vegetables: Overcooked vegetables will be mushy and lose their flavor. Cook them just until they are tender-crisp.
  • Serve the salad immediately: Chickpea and chili salad is best served immediately after it is made. The vegetables will start to wilt if you let it sit for too long.
