Roast Capsicum Pepper And Chickpea Rice Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
• In a large bowl, mix together the chickpeas, olive oil, paprika, and garlic salt.
• Spread the chickpeas onto a baking sheet in one layer. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the chickpeas are crisp.
• Dice the cucumber and add to a large bowl.
• Toss in the mixed greens, cucumber, tomatoes, avocado, roasted chickpeas, extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper, and mix until well combined.
• Divide between individual bowls and serve.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Slice onions and fry in the olive oil until browned. Remove from pan.
• Chop red, green, yellow bell pepper and garlic and mix with cooked rice, chickpeas and corn.
• Pour in the vegetable stock, mix well and season with salt, pepper and paprica to taste.
• Mix in the browned onions (they should still be warm when mixed in!).
• Can be made ahead, but should be taken out of the fridge about one hour before serving for the flavors to develop.

Steps:

• Combine first 5 ingredients in medium bowl. Mix in oil and lemon juice. Season to taste with salt and pepper. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and chill.)

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 450 degrees and arrange racks on the top and bottom thirds of the oven.
• In a large bowl, toss chickpeas with 2 tablespoons oil, the cumin, coriander, turmeric, cayenne and 1/2 teaspoon salt until evenly coated. Spread onto a rimmed sheet pan in a single layer and top with 3 thyme sprigs.
• On a second sheet pan, combine bell peppers, tomatoes, onion, jalapeños and remaining thyme sprigs with 2 tablespoons oil and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt. Spread vegetables into one layer.
• Place chickpea pan on the bottom rack and vegetables on the top rack and roast for 10 minutes. Switch pan positions. Roast chickpeas until crisped but still tender, about 5 minutes, and roast vegetables until golden brown, about 10 minutes. If the vegetables are tender but not browned, place the pan under the broiler for 1 to 2 minutes to caramelize. Discard thyme sprigs.
• While the chickpeas and vegetables roast, whisk lemon juice, garlic and remaining 1/4 cup oil in a small bowl. Season with salt to taste.
• Arrange vegetables on a large platter and drizzle with half the dressing, then top with crispy chickpeas, fresh herbs and pomegranate seeds. Drizzle remaining dressing over everything. Serve with couscous or rice, if you like.
