Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 (15 oz) can chickpeas drained and rinsed

Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. In a medium-sized bowl, combine the chickpeas, lemon zest, lemon juice, coriander, salt, and cumin and toss gently to coat. Add the chickpeas to the skillet and cook until lightly browned and crispy on the outside, around 10 minutes.
