4 servings
- 2 cans (15 oz each) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
Chef's tipUse the same amount. Regular olive oil has a milder taste, so the dish will lose some of the fruity, peppery flavor that extra-virgin adds. This matters most in raw or finishing uses like dressings and drizzles. - 1 tsp ground turmeric
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ¼ tsp cayenne pepper
- ½ tsp fine sea salt
- 1 tsp fresh lemon juice (optional)
Can be omittedlemon juice
Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400°F (205°C). Spread the drained chickpeas in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet lined with paper towels and pat them thoroughly dry — the drier they are, the crispier they will get. Let them air-dry for 5 minutes, then discard the paper towels.

Transfer the dried chickpeas to a mixing bowl. Drizzle with the olive oil and toss to coat evenly. Add the turmeric, cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder, cayenne, and salt, then toss again until every chickpea is well coated in the spice mixture.
