Quick And Easy Oven Roasted Chickpeas
A quick NOT recipe in between my Dacquoise challenge. It is simple and delicious, filling and there is no meat involved. I used canned chickpeas (drained) because it’s all about keeping it simple. This takes about 20 minutes in the oven and you are ready to eat. I recommend mixing the chickpeas with everything a few hours ahead and let them marinate, overnight would work as well, they will be even more tasty. I used what I had on hand to make this and it turned out great. Served simply with some greek yogurt mixed with fresh diced cucumber and dried mint makes a nourishing and super tasty meal.
Roasted Chickpeas
serves 2-3
1 15 oz can of chickpeas rinsed and drained
approximately 10 cherry or baby heirloom tomatoes washed and cut in half
1 shallot peeled and diced
pine nuts a handful or about a scant 1/2 cup
olive oil
approximately 1-2 tbs harissa
dried mint (didn’t measure)
fresh parsley chopped (if I had to guess about 1/4 cup)
1 clove garlic minced or a couple of shakes of garlic powder
salt and pepper
Put everything in a bowl, mix it so it’s combined. Cover and refrigerate for about 2 hours or overnight. Pre heat oven to 375 and line a small sheet pan with parchment. Pour the chickpea mixture on the parchment and roast in the oven for about 20 minutes or until the tomatoes are soft and chickpeas are lightly browned.
Serve with greek yogurt mixed with chopped cucumber and dried mint.
…I will pour that over my salad of Arugula and Spinach…🌿
HAPPY😊SUNDAY
That’s what I will do with the leftovers 👍👍👍👍good idea❤️❤️
Yummy!
Thank you Cheryl and happy Sunday!!

Suzanne, I’ll be perfectly honest (and certainly not food-fashionable) and say “You had me at canned!” Cooking for one, it’s so hard not to end up wasting fresh food items. And I feel like I’ve done something unconscionable when I waste food… So I like having quick things with ingredients I can pull from the cabinet. Even better– this sounds easy and truly delicious. I will certainly have to try my hand at this one! Thank you for this lovely idea! Mega hugs my friend.
I hate wasting food also, the ease of pulling a can from the cabinet and turning it into something delicious and a bit exotic is satisfying. These chickpeas are so tasty and delicious with the yogurt. It would be great with rice but since I stay away from rice and most carb laden foods having this on it i’s own is delicious. Thank you my friend and have a great day.
Love this, Suzanne. Simple deliciousness.
Thank you so much Josette.
I just LOVE chickpeas! I’m all game for canned ones, too. What a delicious and easy meal to pull together Suzanne. I’m keeping my fingers crossed for your Dacquoise!
I’m all about quick and easy when it comes to most of my meals. Thank you so much, nervous about the dacquoise.
You’ll pull it off I am sure of it!!
Good to have some canned food – ans add home made ” something ” – that makes the difference !
Thank you for your good idea, as always – ( maybe with fresh toasted bread ? )
Bonne fin de dimanche – bises et amitiés – france 🙂
sorry … and – add home
Merci, merci France. Oh yes with toasted bread, a baguette toasted with this would be lovely.
Yummy. So in the mood for that now, me too, over a salad. ☺
Thank you so much.
Yum yum yum, my friend made these when we went hiking and I loved them 😀
They taste even better the next day, thank you so much.
This looks delicious, Suzanne 🙂
I do always boil my own chickpeas and then freeze them i small portions. So easy to take out and use. This one is for trying.
I am short on patience and time so often canned work well, very smart of you to make and freeze. I will try that it ‘s a great idea. Thank you so much Irene.
You are welcome Suzanne. I do this to save all the way, it doesn’t take more time to boil a big pot of either beans or chickpeas and it is so easy to use after. Then you can also check, how fresh they are, before using them. Something not possible with the canned ones.
My kind of food!!!! 😀😀😀😀😀
I thought of you when I made this. I can honestly say this dish was inspired by you!!
How lovely, thank you 😘😘😘😘
Lovely!
Thank you so much Lynn.
I like quick and easy. 😉
Hi Suzanne, I have tried once to roast the chickpeas. It was delicious! I will try again and thanks for your recipe! 🙂
This is simply delicious Suzanne. I love chick peas in any form.
Seems easy and flavorful dish.
I love the simplicity of this dish. Garbanzo beans can be such a treat.
Thanks for giving me an excellent lunch idea, Apug!
Perfect 😊
Been seeing these everywhere Suzanne– in salads, or as an appetizer… But never with a recipe. Yours looks great!! And simple enough to be really practical. You are an awesome cook– thanks!
What a great idea Suzanne!
