If you are looking for a way to add a bit of crunch and protein to your daily meals, these spiced chickpeas are a fantastic option. They are simple to prepare and bring a wonderful savory flavor that pairs beautifully with fresh garden greens.

My top tip for this recipe is to make sure your chickpeas are completely dry before you add the oil and spices. Spending an extra minute drying them with paper towels makes a big difference in getting that perfect crispy texture in the oven.

Ingredients

  • 1 can (15 ounces) chickpeas, rinsed and drained
  • 1/2 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon fine grain sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground turmeric

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with paper towels.

  2. 2

    Place the rinsed chickpeas on the paper towels and pat them dry with more towels until they are completely free of moisture.

  3. 3

    Transfer the dried chickpeas to a medium bowl and toss them with the olive oil until they are evenly coated.

  4. 4

    Add the salt, garlic powder, chili powder, ginger, cumin, and turmeric to the bowl and stir well to coat the chickpeas with the spices.

  5. 5

    Line your baking sheet with parchment paper, spread the chickpeas out in a single layer, and roast for 20 minutes.

  6. 6

    Give the baking sheet a gentle shake to move the chickpeas around and roast for another 15 to 20 minutes, until they are golden and lightly charred.

  7. 7

    Remove from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes before serving over your favorite salad.

💡 Tips

These are best enjoyed right after cooling to maintain their crunch. If you have leftovers, you can freeze them once fully cooled and reheat them in a 400°F oven for 5 minutes to restore their crisp texture.
