The Best Crunchy Spiced Chickpeas Food

CRISPY SPICY ROASTED CHICKPEAS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Pat chickpeas dry with a paper towel or clean kitchen towel.
• Mix drained and rinsed chickpeas (15 oz.), olive oil (1 tablespoon), cumin (1/2 teaspoon), cayenne pepper (1/8 teaspoon), kosher salt (1/2 teaspoon), and black pepper (1/4 teaspoon) in a medium bowl until all chickpeas are well-coated.
• Spread chickpeas on prepared baking sheet evenly so they aren't touching.
• Roast for 30 minutes at 400 degrees F.
• Turn heat off, and keep chickpeas in the oven until cool. (I recommend at LEAST an hour). If you have an electric oven, I recommend cracking the door open (see notes for more info about this!).
• Store chickpeas in an airtight container or jar for up to 5 days.

CRISPY ROASTED CHICKPEAS (THAT STAY CRISPY!)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Rinse and drain the chickpeas, shaking off as much water as possible. Place them on a towel and pat gently to dry. Place another towel on top, then use your hands to rub the chickpeas and remove as many of the chickpea skins as possible. Do this once or twice; it should only take a few minutes and it's not necessary to remove all of the skins.
• In a medium bowl, stir together chickpeas with the olive oil, chili powder, black pepper, cumin, smoked paprika, and kosher salt.
• Pour chickpeas onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and spread them into a single layer. Bake for about 45 to 60 minutes until crispy and dry, shaking the pan every 15 minutes. The exact bake time depends on the chickpea brand and your oven, so watch closely in the final minutes, taste test, and remove when the chickpeas are browned but before they become very dark and hard. Allow to cool for at least 30 minutes before storing; the chickpeas will crisp up even more as they cool.
• Allow to cool. Store in an airtight container in a dry cupboard for up to 1 week.

CRISPY BUFFALO CHICKPEAS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Once the chickpeas have been thoroughly rinsed, spread them on a clean dish towel and pat them as dry as possible. Remove any skins that have loosened. If desired, remove the skins from all the chickpeas (this will result in a slightly crispier chickpea, but it is not necessary). Transfer the chickpeas to a medium bowl and toss with the baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper.
• Melt the butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the celery salt, garlic powder and onion powder and cook, stirring, until the spices are lightly toasted and fragrant, about 1 minute. Add 1/4 cup of the hot sauce and stir to combine. Pour over the chickpeas and fold gently to coat well.
• Scatter the chickpeas on a rimmed baking sheet in a single layer. Roast until the chickpeas are a deep golden brown and very crispy, tossing them and rotating the sheet halfway through, 55 to 60 minutes. Remove from the oven and drizzle with 2 tablespoons of the hot sauce. Shake the pan back and forth so that the chickpeas roll and are well coated in the sauce. Continue to bake until the sauce has dried out, about 5 minutes more.
• Drizzle the remaining 2 tablespoons hot sauce over the top and toss to coat. Let sit on the baking sheet until cooled completely, about 30 minutes. Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days at room temperature.

CRUNCHY CHICKPEAS

Steps:

• Cook a 15-ounce can drained chickpeas in an ovenproof skillet with 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1 teaspoon each cumin and smoked paprika, 2 minutes. Season with salt, then bake 20 minutes at 425 degrees F.

CRISPY SPICED CHICKPEAS

Steps:

• 1. Place the chiles in a spice grinder and grind until fine. Add the salt, lime zest and sugar. Pulse a few more times until well combined and set aside.
• 2. Spread the chickpeas in a single layer on paper towels and pat dry. Heat 3/4 inch of oil in a heavy-bottomed shallow pot or small Dutch oven to 375 degrees F. Carefully add the chickpeas in small batches, about a cup per batch, to the oil. (The oil will bubble up for a few seconds.) Fry, stirring occasionally, until browned and crisp, 8 to 10 minutes per batch. Transfer to a paper towel-lined tray and immediately sprinkle with some of the chile salt. Cool slightly and serve.
• Chef's Note: The chickpeas can be fried 2 to 3 days ahead of time. Cool without the chile salt and store in a sealed plastic container. Before serving, spread in a single layer on a baking sheet and toast in a 400-degree F oven until sizzling and crispy. Season with the chile salt, cool and serve.
