Spanish Chickpea Stew Recipes

Steps:

• Mix the paprika, ginger, pepper and turmeric in a small bowl until combined; set aside.
• Heat 1/4 cup of the oil in a large heavy pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the garlic, onions and 1 tablespoon salt and cook, stirring and scraping occasionally, until the onions are very soft and golden brown, about 15 minutes. Add the carrots and poblano and cook until the colors brighten but the vegetables are not yet tender, about 3 minutes. Add half of the paprika mixture and stir to coat. Cook until the spices are very fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes, olives, all of the chickpea liquid, half of the chickpeas and 1 cup water and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, then cover and simmer until the vegetables are tender and the chickpeas are very soft, 35 to 45 minutes.
