Ingredients
4 servings
- •1 (15 ounce) can chickpeas (garbanzo beans), drained
- •2 tablespoons olive oil
- •1 pinch salt, or to taste
- •1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
- •1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- •1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
- •1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
- Gather all ingredients.
- Place chickpeas between two layers of paper towels, spread out, and gently pat dry. Repeat spreading and patting dry 1 to 2 more times, using fresh paper towels each time, until chickpeas are dry. Place on a large rimmed baking sheet lined with paper towels, set aside, uncovered, for 2 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Remove and discard paper towels, and spread chickpeas in an even layer. Bake in preheated oven until crunchy and lightly browned, 20 to 25 minutes, stirring once halfway through.
- Turn off the oven; stir chickpeas and place back in turned off oven for 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, whisk oil, salt, paprika, black pepper, cayenne, and garlic powder together in a medium bowl until combined. Stir in chickpeas and mix until well coated. Cool for 5 minutes before serving.
- Enjoy!
