Chickpea And Chilli Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Whisk together 1 tsp olive oil, the lemon juice, smoked paprika and a little seasoning to make a dressing. Divide the spinach between 2 serving bowls.
• Heat the remaining 2 tsp olive oil in a non-stick frying pan. Stir-fry the pepper for 5 mins over a high heat until starting to caramelise at the edges. Add the chilli, spring onions and tomatoes and stir-fry for 1 min. Tip in the chickpeas and cook for a further min, then stir in the dressing.
• Spoon the hot chickpea mixture over the spinach leaves, then top with the crumbled feta.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl combine chickpeas, onion, cucumber, tomato, red wine vinegar and balsamic vinegar. Mix well and serve.

Steps:

• Roast the chickpeas: Drain, rinse and pat dry the chickpeas; let sit 30 minutes on a paper towel-lined plate to let them dry out. Preheat the oven to 350˚ F. Dump the chickpeas onto a rimmed baking sheet. Toss with the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast, tossing occasionally, until crisp and dry, about 50 minutes. Let cool.
• While the chickpeas cool, bake the croutons: Toss the pita pieces with the butter and a pinch of salt on another baking sheet. Bake until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Let cool. (You can store the chickpeas and the croutons in separate containers at room temperature for up to 4 days.)
• Make the dressing: Mix the tahini, lemon juice and 3 to 4 tablespoons water in a bowl until creamy and pourable. Season with salt and pepper. (You can put the dressing in a cute jar and store it in the fridge for up to 5 days. If it gets too thick to pour, mix in a little water before using.)
• Make the salad: Combine the spinach, tomatoes, cucumber, onion, radishes and mint in a large bowl. Add the feta, za'atar, dressing and chickpeas and gently toss. Top with the croutons.

Steps:

• Cook the beans in a pan of boiling water for 3 mins until just tender, adding the chickpeas for the final min of cooking. Meanwhile, make the dressing: in a large bowl, whisk the lime juice and zest with 3 tbsp of the oil and the chilli. Season. Drain the chickpeas and beans and, while warm, toss with the dressing.
• Pour boiling water over the red onion, leave for 5 mins to soften, then drain and rinse. Add the peppers, tomatoes, rocket, parsley and softened onion to the bean bowl. Toss to coat everything in the dressing, then divide between 2 plates.
• Heat the remaining oil in a frying pan, add the halloumi slices and fry for about 1 min on each side until golden. Place a few warm halloumi slices on top of each salad and serve.

Steps:

• For the dressing, combine dressing ingredients in a small bowl. Whisk together until mixed thoroughly.
• In a large bowl, combine chickpeas, cucumber, tomatoes, onion, avocado, carrots, and dressing. Toss together until evenly combined.
• Serve and garnish.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• In saucepan, bring water to a boil. Add green beans and cook until tender crisp, about 5 minutes. (If using frozen corn, add to the beans and cook for 1 minute) Drain and chill in cold water; drain and set aside.
• Drain and rinse chickpeas and black beans thoroughly; place in a large bowl. Add orange pepper, corn and onions; set aside.
• CHILI LIME DRESSING: Combine the ingredients; pour over the beans and toss to coat (Can be made ahead: cover and chill for up to 24 hours).
• Adjust seasoning to personal preference.
• Options:
• Add/or change to red pepper.
• Add/or change to red kidney beans.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the bacon and cook, stirring occasionally, until rendered but not crisp, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the onion, carrot, celery, poblano, garlic and a generous pinch each of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables soften and just start to brown, about 8 minutes. Stir in the cumin and coriander and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
• Meanwhile, transfer the tomatoes and their juices to a medium bowl. Using your hands, gently crushed the tomatoes into chunks. Add the tomatoes, stock and chipotles to the pan and bring to a simmer.
• Remove and discard the skin and bones from the chicken. Coarsely chop or shred the meat. Stir the chicken and chickpeas into the pan. Simmer over medium heat, stirring gently, until the chicken and chickpeas are heated through, 3 to 5 minutes. Season the chili with salt and pepper. Serve hot, topped with the cheese.
