Ingredients

  • •2 cans (15 oz each) chickpeas, drained and dried
  • •2 tablespoons olive oil
  • •1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • •1 teaspoon paprika
  • •1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • •1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • •1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Directions

  1. 1Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. 2Drain and rinse canned chickpeas, then pat dry thoroughly with paper towels.
  3. 3Toss chickpeas with olive oil and all spices in a bowl until evenly coated.
  4. 4Spread chickpeas in a single layer on a baking sheet.
  5. 5Roast for 25-30 minutes, shaking the pan halfway through, until golden and crispy.

💡 Roasted chickpeas need to be very dry before oil goes on; residual rinse water produces leathery skins instead of crisp shells.
