Ingredients:
- 2 cans (15 ounces each) chickpeas, drained, rinsed, and thoroughly dried
- 2 tablespoons Buona Cucina Harissa Infused Oil
- 2 teaspoons Buona Cucina Za’atar Israel
- 1 tablespoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Prepare the Chickpeas: Rinse and drain the chickpeas from the cans. Pat them dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture. Place the chickpeas on the prepared baking sheet.
- Coat with Harissa Infused Oil: Drizzle the Buona Cucina Harissa Infused Oil over the chickpeas, ensuring they are evenly coated. Toss the chickpeas to make sure they are all coated with the flavorful oil.
- Season with Za’atar and Spices: Sprinkle the Buona Cucina Za’atar Israel evenly over the chickpeas, followed by kosher salt, garlic powder, and black pepper. Toss again to ensure the chickpeas are well-seasoned.
- Spread on Baking Sheet: Spread the seasoned chickpeas in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. This helps them roast evenly and become crispy.
- Roast in the Oven: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 25-30 minutes or until the chickpeas are golden brown and crispy. Shake the pan or toss the chickpeas halfway through the roasting time for even crispiness.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the roasted chickpeas to cool slightly before serving. They will continue to crisp up as they cool. Serve as a crunchy snack or a topping for salads.
