Tips:
- For the best flavor, use high-quality chickpeas. Look for chickpeas that are plump and have a smooth, even surface.
- Be sure to rinse the chickpeas thoroughly before cooking. This will help to remove any impurities and make them more digestible.
- If you are using dried chickpeas, be sure to soak them overnight before cooking. This will help to soften them and reduce the cooking time.
- To make the chickpeas extra crispy, roast them in the oven at a high temperature. Keep an eye on them so that they do not burn.
- Season the chickpeas with your favorite Mexican-inspired spices. Some popular options include chili powder, cumin, paprika, and garlic powder.
- Serve the chickpeas as a snack or appetizer, or use them as a topping for salads, tacos, or burritos.
