I found this recipe when flipping through a cookbook that I had not used yet. I was determined to try a recipe out of it and this is the one I choose. I am glad I did because it was a hit with the couple we had over for dinner. It is definitely one I will be making again. I also think it would be fun to experiment with different spice blends.
Spiced Chickpeas
3 tbsp peanut oil
2 cups canned chick peas, drained and patted dry
3 tbsp sugar
2 tsp ground cumin
2 tsp coarse salt
1 tsp red pepper flakes
2 cups canned chick peas, drained and patted dry
3 tbsp sugar
2 tsp ground cumin
2 tsp coarse salt
1 tsp red pepper flakes
1) Preheat the oven to 300 F.
2) In a heavy bottomed skillet, heat oil over medium high heat. Add chickpeas and sprinkle sugar over them. Saute, tossing frequently, until chickpeas are golden brown, 5-7 minutes
3) Using a slotted spoon, transfer chickpeas to a rimmed baking sheet. Sprinkle with Salt, Cumin, and red pepper flakes and toss gently to coat. Roast until chickpeas are crisp and dry, 50-60 minutes. Let cool before serving.
