Categories     Snack

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 15-oz cans chickpeas (drained and rinsed)
Extra virgin olive oil,
Kosher salt
Seasoning of your choice,

Steps:

  • Drain and dry chickpeas very well. Dry them up using some paper towels and leave them in a colander until they have dried as much as possible (OR you can spread them on a large baking sheet lined with paper towel for a while.)
  • Heat the oven to 400 degrees F and position a rack right in the middle.
  • Spread the chickpeas well on a bare baking sheet (do not line the baking sheet with parchment or foil.) Drizzle a generous amount of extra virgin olive oil and season with kosher salt. Toss chickpeas and make sure they are well-coated with the olive oil. Spread them out well on the sheet.
  • Roast in heated oven anywhere from 20 to 35 minutes, shaking the pan every 10 minutes or so for even cooking. Don't rush it, make sure the chickpeas turn a deeper golden brown and the exterior is nice and crispy, that's when they're ready.
  • Season roasted chickpeas. Once you take the chickpeas out of the oven, immediately season with spices of your choice. This time, I used za'atar, sumac, and harissa blend (up to 2 tsp each) for warm Middle Eastern and Moroccan notes. Play with the amounts to your liking, and change up the spices according to what you have. (see more flavor ideas up in the post)

Tips:

  • Choose the right chickpeas: Dried chickpeas are best for roasting, as they have a firmer texture and hold their shape better than canned chickpeas. If using dried chickpeas, be sure to soak them overnight before roasting.
  • Use a variety of seasonings: Roasted chickpeas are a blank canvas for flavor, so don't be afraid to experiment with different seasonings. Some popular options include olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, and smoked paprika.
  • Roast the chickpeas until they're crispy: The key to perfectly roasted chickpeas is to roast them until they're crispy. This will take about 30-40 minutes, depending on the size of the chickpeas and the temperature of your oven.
  • Let the chickpeas cool before serving: Once the chickpeas are roasted, let them cool for a few minutes before serving. This will help them to crisp up even more.
