Spicy Curry Roasted Chickpeas

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 (15 oz.) cans chickpeas a.k.a. garbanzo beans, rinsed and drained
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons curry powder
  • 1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

PREPARATION

  1. Preheat oven to 400º F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Once you have thoroughly rinsed and drained chickpeas, place them on a clean dish towel, wrap up the towel and rub them together to remove outer skins and to make sure they’re fully dry. Note: if they’re still wet, they won’t be as crispy.
  3. Transfer chickpeas to a large bowl and stir in olive oil, lime juice, curry powder, chili, powder, paprika and cayenne. Mix together so everything is coated.
  4. Pour chickpeas out into a single layer on lined baking sheet, then place in oven and bake for 40 minutes, or until crispy.
  5. Remove from oven and season with salt. Let cool or serve immediately.
