Oven-Roasted Spicy Chickpeas
MAKES: 3 cups
INGREDIENTS:
- 2 (15-oz) cans chickpeas, rinsed, drained and dried with a paper towel
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp chili powder
- 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
INSTRUCTIONS:
1) Heat oven to 400F
2) Mix the oil, cumin, chili powder, cayenne pepper and sea salt in a small bowl until thoroughly combined.
3) Place chickpeas into a large bowl and pour the oil/spice mix to over the chickpeas. Mix until all chickpeas are coated with spices.
4) Spread chickpeas onto a large baking sheet (rimmed so they don't roll off), and bake on the center rack in the over for 30 minutes.
5) Remove from the over, allow to cool for 10-15 minutes, then place back into the over and bake for 15 minutes more. Cool before serving.
Note: the 2nd bake time ensures crispy chickpeas. If any are still soft, just pop them back in the oven.
