4 servings
- 2 cans (15 oz each) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 1 tsp coarsely ground black pepper
- 1 tbsp lemon zest (from about 2 lemons)
- 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- ¼ tsp garlic powder
- ¼ tsp onion powder
- ¼ tsp cayenne pepper (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Preheat the oven to 400°F (205°C). Spread the drained chickpeas in a single layer on a clean kitchen towel or paper towels and pat them thoroughly dry, then let them air-dry for 5 minutes — the drier they are, the crispier they will roast.

Transfer the dried chickpeas to a rimmed baking sheet and spread them in a single layer. Roast for 20 minutes, shaking the pan once halfway through, until the skins begin to split and the chickpeas feel firm when pressed.
