Instructions

For the Roasted Chickpeas

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F. Place chickpeas onto a parchment lined baking sheet. Toss with olive oil, salt and spices. Transfer the baking sheet into the oven and roast for 20 minutes until crispy. Remove and transfer to a paper towel lined plate to keep them crispy.

For the Chopped Salad

  1. In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
  2. Add the chickpeas, tomatoes, cucumbers, roasted red pepper, and herbs to the bowl and toss to combine. Taste and season as needed. Add the feta cheese, and toss in the roasted chickpeas. Adjust seasoning as needed and serve.

Notes

  • This is best served just after tossing, so that the chickpeas remain crispy. It will last a few days in the fridge, though the texture will change.
