Instructions
- 1
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Pat the drained chickpeas thoroughly dry with a clean kitchen towel — the drier they are, the crispier they will roast.

Combine the chickpeas and bell pepper strips on a large rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with 3 tbsp olive oil, then sprinkle with the cumin, smoked paprika, turmeric, black pepper, and 1/4 tsp salt. Toss to coat evenly, then spread into a single layer, keeping the chickpeas and peppers in separate areas of the pan so the chickpeas can crisp.
