Spicy Roasted Chickpeas
I’ve chosen to go the spicy route on this recipe, however, any flavours you like will work well. Spices such a curry powder, garam masala and cayenne pepper or dried herbs such as rosemary and thyme will make a nice savoury flavour as well.

Cuisine:Ingredients
- 1 can (15 ounce) chickpeas
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Sea Salt
Instructions
- Heat the oven to 450°F.
- Rinse and drain the chickpeas. Open the cans of chickpeas and pour the chickpeas into a strainer in the sink.
- Rinse thoroughly under running water to remove any excess liquid from the can.
- Pour the chickpeas onto a clean dishtowel or paper towl to pat dry. The more liquid you can remove the crispier they will become. If you have time, leave them to air-dry for an hour or so.
- In a bowl, toss the chickpeas with olive oil, spices and a pinch of sea salt.
- Roast the chickpeas in the oven for 25 to 30 minutes. Stir the chickpeas or shake the pan every 10 minutes, checking them to ensure they do not burn.
- Remove from oven and serve.
- These are best served warm as they may lose a little crispy’ness as they dry, however the flavour is still good.
- Enjoy!
