Ingredients

  • 1 tin cooked chickpeas ( 400 g, 13 oz)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon coarse sea salt
  • ¼ teaspoon freshly-ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon spicy paprika
  • ½ teaspoon garlic granules

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Drain the liquid from the tin of chickpeas and rinse them with cold water.
  2. Remove the skin from each chickpea by pressing on it gently.
  3. Arrange the chickpeas on a kitchen towel, and pat them dry.
  4. Add them to a bowl, add the oil, seasoning and spices, and toss well to combine.
  5. Transfer the chickpeas to the air fryer, making sure they are in one single layer, and air fry at 200 degrees Celsius (390 Fahrenheit) for 20-22 minutes, shaking the air fryer drawer half the way through.
  6. Allow them to cool down, then serve.

Notes

  • There is no need to let try the chickpeas to dry before tossing them in oil and spices, they will still turn out crispy. 
  • Removing the skins one by one sounds like a chore, but it really does help with the crispiness, so it's a step I highly recommend!
  • The chickpeas stay crispy for a long time, no need to store them in a special container.
