Ingredients:

  • 1 (15-ounce/425g) can chickpeas, drained and rinsed thoroughly
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (30ml)
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt (5g), or to taste

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Drain and rinse the chickpeas very well.
  2. Spread the chickpeas on a clean kitchen towel or several layers of paper towels. Gently rub them dry and remove any loose skins (this helps with crispness!).
  3. In a large bowl, toss the dried chickpeas with olive oil and sea salt until evenly coated.
  4. Spread the chickpeas in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for 30-40 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy, shaking the pan halfway through to ensure even cooking. Check regularly after 30 minutes to prevent burning.
  5. Let the chickpeas cool slightly on the baking sheet before serving. They will crisp up more as they cool.
