Description

Ingredients

• 1-15oz can of chickpeas, drained and rinsed
• 2 Tablespoons olive oil
• 1/2 teaspoon salt {more or less to taste}
• 1/2 teaspoon of smoked paprika {or your favorite spice: other ideas cinnamon, paprika, sumac, zaatar}

Directions

• Rinse and drain the chickpeas. On a rimmed baking sheet put a paper towel down and lay the chickpeas out in a single layer. Lay another paper towel over the chickpeas and let them sit for 20 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• After 20 minutes roll your hands over the paper towel to loosen any casings. Pick through the chickpeas and discard any loose casings.
• In a medium mixing bowl mix together chickpeas, olive oil and salt.
• Spread back on a rimmed baking sheet (without the paper towel) and roast for 35-40 minutes tossing occasionally, until crispy and golden.
• Remove from the oven and sprinkle the spice of your choice over the chickpeas (for example 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika or 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon). If using honey put the chickpeas back in a mixing bowl and stir the honey in.
• Serve warm or put in a tupperware dish. These are best the first day.
