Course: Appetizer
Cuisine: American
Servings: 8 servings
- 2 15-oz. cans chickpeas rinsed and drained
- 1 Tbsp. oil avocado or olive
- 2 tsp. paprika
- 2 tsp. curry powder
- 1 tsp. garlic powder
- 1 tsp. salt to taste
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Add the chickpeas to a mesh strainer or colander. Rinse, drain, and then thoroughly dry with a dish towel.
Add to a large bowl, drizzle with the oil, and toss to coat.
Whisk together the seasonings in a small bowl and then sprinkle over the chickpeas. Toss until they’re well coated.
Spread the chickpeas out onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet in a single layer. Bake for 35-40 minutes, giving the pan a shake halfway through cooking.
Let cool to room temperature before serving. Enjoy!
Feel free to change up the seasonings! Instead of the paprika, curry powder, garlic powder, and salt swap these out for 2 Tbsp. of your favorite seasoning mix and then salt to taste.
Meal Prep and Storage
- How to prep ahead of time: These oven-roasted chickpeas are super easy to make a few days before you need them.
- How to store: There are a few ways to keep these chickpeas. The best way for the crispiest chickpeas is in a bowl at room temperature loosely covered. You can also use an airtight container or plastic bag, but they won't be as crunchy.
- How to freeze: Leftovers can be stored frozen in a freezer-safe zip-top bag or container for up to 3-6 months
