Ingredients
For the chickpea bites:
- 1 15- ounce can chickpeas drained
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup feta cheese
- 2 teaspoons oregano
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons water
For the bowl:
- 2 tablespoons olive oil divided
- ½ red onion thinly sliced
- 1 SUNSET® Aloha™ Peppers thinly sliced
- pita bread
- romaine lettuce shredded
- Tzatziki sauce
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine the chickpeas, all purpose flour, feta cheese, oregano, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Add two tablespoons of water and use a fork or masher to combine the ingredients until they are well blended.
- Scoop 1 tablespoon of the mixture and roll with your hands it into a small ball; makes about 14-15 parts bites.
- Heat 1 tablespoon oil in large pan over medium heat. Add chickpea bites and cook until golden brown and fully cooked through, 4-5 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
- In same skillet, increase heat to medium high and add remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Add onions and peppers and cook until softened and charred, 5-7 minutes
- Assemble gyro bowls with lettuce and pita on the bottom of two bowls. Divide the chickpea bites, onions and peppers, followed by the tzatziki sauce.
Notes
- Storage: This salad is best enjoyed soon after being made, but the chickpea bites will keep well in the fridge for up to 4 days.
