This simple recipe turns a can of chickpeas into a delicious, protein-packed snack in just 40 minutes.

  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 2 cups 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 12 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp paprika (or your favorite seasoning)
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • After draining and rinsing the chickpeas, pat them dry with a paper towel to remove as much moisture as possible.
  • In a bowl, toss the dried chickpeas with olive oil, sea salt, paprika, and garlic powder until evenly coated.
  • Spread the chickpeas in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, shaking the pan halfway through, until the chickpeas are golden brown and crispy.
  • Let the chickpeas cool slightly before serving, as they will continue to crisp up as they cool.

Notes

  • You can experiment with different seasonings, such as cumin, curry powder, or chili flakes, to create various flavor profiles.
  • For an extra-crispy result, you can roast the chickpeas for an additional 5-10 minutes, but keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
