Spicy Crunchy Chickpea Snack Recipes

SPICY ROASTED CHICKPEAS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
• Carefully dry the chickpeas. Removing the skins is optional and they will come off easily. The drier you get them, the crunchier they'll be!
• In a medium bowl, add dried chickpeas, olive oil, cumin, chili powder, cayenne pepper and salt. Toss well to coat evenly.
• Spread chickpeas out on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
• Roast for 15-20 minutes.
• Mix around on baking sheet and roast for additional 15-20 minutes, or until browned.
• Cool for 5-10 minutes.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.

• Spread chickpeas on prepared baking sheet evenly so they aren't touching.
• Roast for 30 minutes at 400 degrees F.

SPICY ROAST CHICKPEAS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 4. Tip the chickpeas into a bowl and toss with the rapeseed oil, smoked paprika, cumin and coriander along with a big pinch of salt. Toss well until the chickpeas are well coated, then tip out onto a baking tray and bake for 35 mins, moving them round the tray halfway through so they dry out evenly and are crunchy. Leave to cool, then store in an airtight container.

SPICY CRUNCHY CHICKPEA SNACK

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200°C/400°F
• Peel and chop the garlic cloves rather coarsely.
• Toss all the ingredients together thoroughly. Spread evenly over a baking sheet. Bake for 30 minutes, stirring around midway through. Take out and let cool. [Edit: this baking time turns out peas that are a mix of crunchy ones and ones that are still a bit soft - I like this variety.
• Since all ovens vary, you will need to test the doneness. If you like your peas to be a bit soft, bake them for a shorter time; if you like them very crunchy leave them in longer.].
• Store this in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Makes a great beer snack.
• You can make it sweet-spicy by sprinkling over some brown or raw sugar to while it's still hot from the oven.
