Ingredients
* 1 tin of chickpeas
* 1tbsp of olive oil, I used sunflower oil but you can use whichever one you like
* 1 tsp of chilli powder
Preparation
* Open up the tin of chickpeas and drain them.
* In a bowl mix together the oil and the chilli powder.
* Pour the chickpeas into the mixture and stir until they are all covered.
* Cover a baking tray in tin foil and spread the chickpeas over the tray, no overlapping.
* Roast in the oven for around 20-30 minutes, checking closely at the end to make sure they don't burn.
What is surprising is that when the chickpeas are roasted they get the same texture/consistancy of nuts and with the chilli powder it gives them that extra spicy kick. A great snack that is healthy but packed full of flavour. I've found they can last 2-3 days if you keep them in an air tight container.
