Instructions
- Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, carrots and a pinch of salt and cook until golden. 4 to 6 mins. Stir occasionally. Reserve half of the mixture for the red sauce.
- Add chickpeas and spices to the skillet (or use 1 tbsp or more taco seasoning or chili powder blend of choice ). Mix well, Cover and cook for 4 to 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile make the red sauce: Blend all the ingredients and reserved onion garlic carrot mixture until smooth in a blender and set aside. (You can also make the sauce with red salsa, chipotle pepper, cumin, salt and water as needed).
- Add tortilla chips or crisped sliced tortillas to the chickpea skillet. *
- Pour the blended sauce over them. mix and bring to boil. Taste and adjust salt and heat and mix in.
- Serve immediately garnished with chopped onion, cilantro, and a dash of lime juice. Add other garnishes like avocado or vegan sour cream/vegan queso etc.
Notes
- * I usually crisp up the tortilla or any flatbread that I have over direct flame until the edges are seared and the tortilla is slightly crisp. Slice the tortilla like a pizza into triangles and use. You can also pan fry or bake the tortilla strips until crisp.
- For variation, use pinto beans, black beans, cooked lentils, or crumbled tofu instead of chickpeas at step 2.
