Sweet Curried Chickpeas

I love the final touches on a dish. Maybe some chopped parsley, toasted pine nuts or a sprinkle of fresh herbs. Little touches can take a dish from a meal to an event – something to be remembered and wanted again and again. I think these chickpeas on their own are pretty impressive, I can’t wait to add them to a salad, top a root vegetable tajine, or a pizza!

 

 

 

 

Sweet Curried Chickpeas

 
1 can (29 oz.) chickpeas, rinsed and dried well
1 T. olive oil
1 t. sweet curry powder
½ t. sea salt
Fresh ground pepper

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Rinse and dry the chickpeas. Put chickpeas in a large bowl and add olive oil. Mix well so all the chickpeas are coated with the olive oil. Sprinkle with the sweet curry powder, sea salt and pepper. Mix until all chickpeas are evenly coated. Place on a baking sheet, evenly spaced and roast in oven for 40 minutes or until lightly browned.

Enjoy!
