Time 13h15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

Two 15-ounce cans garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed
4 strips bacon
Salt
1 sprig fresh rosemary

Steps:

  • Spread out the garbanzos on a baking sheet and let them dry, uncovered, in the refrigerator overnight. (If you forget to let them dry overnight, it's okay; you'll just need to cook them longer.)
  • Place the bacon in a large skillet over medium-low heat and cook until browned and crispy, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Drain on a paper-towel-lined plate; reserve the fat in the pan. Eat the bacon as snack while you cook.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Add the dried garbanzos to the pan with the rendered bacon fat. Season with a generous pinch of salt and add the rosemary. Cook over medium-low heat for about 2 minutes, then remove the rosemary sprig. Transfer the garbanzos to a baking sheet and bake until crispy, 35 to 40 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes. (If you did not dry the garbanzos overnight, bake them for 45 to 50 minutes.)
  • Let cool to room temp before serving.

Roasted Garbanzo Beans/Chickpeas image

These are addictive little snacks. Crunchy and flavorful BUT actually good for you too! The spicier you get these the better imho! Plus, spicy foods are supposed to increase your metabolism! A reviewer said these made their mouth dry- Guess they might also increase my water intake! :) Make sure to get them good and dry before baking and they will cook more quickly.

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 49m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 (15 ounce) cans garbanzo beans (chick peas)
cooking spray
1 tablespoon cajun seasoning, heaping
1 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
1 teaspoon onion powder (optional)
cayenne, to taste

Steps:

  • Drain garbanzo's in a strainer and rinse well with cool water. Shake to help remove water. Let sit to drain while proceeding.
  • Cover a rimmed cookie sheet or shallow casserole dish with cooking spray. Pour garbanzos on the foil and spread them into a single layer. Take a few sheets of paper towel and gently press over the top of the beans just to remove any extra liquid- speeds cooking time too.
  • Spray top of beans with cooking spray and sprinkle seasonings over the beans. Shake pan to help distribute the seasoning and make sure the beans are all in a single layer.
  • Place pan in an oven and set to 350 F- no need to preheat. Use lowest rack on oven and return every 15-20 minutes or so to shake the pan so nothing burns. Be gentle or they may spill over the sides. Cook until beans are browned and crispy. About 45 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and pour into a plastic bowl with tight fitting lid to cool. Careful they are HOT to the touch!
  • Snack away! Keep these stored in the bowl for best freshness or in a ziploc bag.

POTAJE DE GARBANZOS (CUBAN GARBANZO BEAN STEW)



Potaje de Garbanzos (Cuban Garbanzo Bean Stew) image

This is my take on a super-comforting Cuban meal my dad has made for years. It is a great way to use pantry ingredients and can be served with white rice for an even heartier option. Don't be afraid to make a big batch -- the sweet and smoky flavors get better the next day!

Provided by Gabriela Rodiles

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium yellow onion, medium diced
1 green pepper, medium diced
1 packet (1 1/2 teaspoons) Sazón seasoning mix with saffron
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 tablespoons vino seco (see Cook's Note) or sherry cooking wine
Two 15-ounce cans garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed
2 large russet potatoes, peeled and large diced
6 ounces Spanish chorizo, casing removed and chorizo cut into small chunks
White rice, for serving, optional

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a medium heavy pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the onion, green pepper, Sazón seasoning, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and a few cracks of freshly ground black pepper. Cook, stirring and scraping the bottom of the pot occasionally, until the onions are soft, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly darker in color and thickened, about 1 minute. Add the vino seco to deglaze the pan, scraping any browned bits with a wooden spoon.
  • Add the garbanzo beans, potatoes, chorizo and 5 cups of water. Turn the heat up to high and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, then cover the pot and simmer until the potatoes are tender and the chickpeas are very soft, about 20 minutes. Once the potatoes have softened, use the back of a wooden spoon to crush some of them against the side of the pot to thicken the stew. Serve the stew over hot rice, if desired.
