Crunchy Smoky Chickpeas

Crunchy Roasted BBQ Chickpeas

Chickpeas make an amazing snack! Tossed in olive oil and spices, then drizzled with a little bit of honey, and roasted in the oven, they are utterly irresistible. Once they dry out, they become these lovely little balls of crunchy texture and vibrant flavours. Our favourite Crunchy BBQ Chickpeas are made with smoked paprika and hints of chilli and honey.

Ingredients
 
 

  • 2 tins of chickpeas (400g each)
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • ½ teaspoon chilli powder
  • ½ teaspoon course salt
  • 2 teaspoon runny honey

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 180°C Fan. Drain your chickpeas, then remove the outer shell (see text above for details).
  • Place the prepared chickpeas on a piece of paper towel. With another piece of paper towel, dry them thoroughly, rolling the towel on top of the chickpeas, pressing gently, not to squish them.
  • In a large bowl, mix olive oil, smoked paprika, chilli powder and salt. Then tip the dried chickpeas in and toss to coat well.
  • Spread the chickpeas on a large baking tray (or two), making sure they are spread apart and pop in the preheated oven for 10 minutes.
  • After 10 minutes, remove the tray(s) from the oven and drizzle the honey all over, stirring them slightly and spreading apart again.
  • Pop the chickpeas back in the oven for another 15 minutes, but keep an eye on them as the size of tinned chickpeas can vary, so check after 10 minutes. They should be crunchy and slightly browned.
  • Cool on the baking tray, then store in an airtight container at room temperature.
