Spicy Chickpea Snack Mix Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
• Carefully dry the chickpeas. Removing the skins is optional and they will come off easily. The drier you get them, the crunchier they'll be!
• In a medium bowl, add dried chickpeas, olive oil, cumin, chili powder, cayenne pepper and salt. Toss well to coat evenly.
• Spread chickpeas out on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
• Roast for 15-20 minutes.
• Mix around on baking sheet and roast for additional 15-20 minutes, or until browned.
• Cool for 5-10 minutes.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Whisk the oil, cumin, garlic powder, chili powder, sea salt, black pepper, and red pepper together in a small bowl; add the chickpeas and toss to coat. Spread into a single layer on a baking sheet.
• Roast in the preheated oven, stirring occasionally, until nicely browned and slightly crispy, about 45 minutes.

Steps:

• Garlic confit sauce:
• Gently smash the garlic cloves so they are cracked but not completely broken. Peel off the skins.
• In a small saucepan, combine the garlic cloves, bay leaves, and oil. Simmer over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the garlic is evenly golden brown on all sides, about 12 minutes. Remove the bay leaves and transfer the rest of the mixture to a blender (or use an immersion blender). Add the fish sauce and pepper. Blend until the mixture is smooth.
• DO AHEAD: Keep in an airtight jar in the fridge for up to 2 weeks, or 2 months in the freezer. Thaw and/or stir before use.
• Spice mix and crispy chickpeas:
• Even though some of the spices are already ground, we will process them a second time to get a finer powder that will stick well to the chickpeas. In a spice grinder, grind the spice mix ingredients to a fine powder. Set aside.
• In a deep frying pan or Dutch oven, pour enough oil to reach a depth of 2 inches (5 cm). Heat over medium-high until the oil bubbles up immediately around an inserted wooden chopstick.
• Meanwhile in a large bowl, toss the chickpeas with the buttermilk and the 1 tablespoon of flour until they are evenly coated in this light batter. In a separate large bowl, mix the remaining cup (31 g) flour, the garlic powder, baking soda, white pepper, and salt. Add the coated chickpeas to the flour mixture and toss until you have a slightly wet but crumbly mixture. It may look like the chickpeas are kind of sticking together, but it's okay.
• In a large bowl, mix the garlic with 2 teaspoons of the Garlic Confit Sauce (save the rest for another day). Set aside.
• Now, in several small batches as needed, add the breaded chickpeas to the hot oil and start breaking them apart with a chopstick. It's okay if they are in small clumps of 2 to 4 chickpeas. Fry for a couple of minutes, until the chickpeas are golden brown all around. Transfer with a slotted spoon to the bowl with the garlic sauce and repeat to fry the rest of the chickpeas.
• Add the basil leaves to the frying oil and immediately cover the pot with a lid, leaving a small slit for the steam to escape. When the popping sound has subsided, remove the lid and fry the basil until crispy. Transfer with a slotted spoon to the bowl with the chickpeas.
• Toss the chickpeas to coat them evenly with the garlic mixture, then add the spice mixture and toss until evenly coated. Season with more salt if needed. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350*.
• In medium bowl mix together curry powder, brown sugar and salt.
• Add chickpeas and toss to coat.
• Bake the chickpeas on a parchment-lined baking sheet, stirring occasionally, until crunchy, about 60 minutes.
• Cool chickpeas thoroughly and then toss with zest and raisins.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 4. Tip the chickpeas into a bowl and toss with the rapeseed oil, smoked paprika, cumin and coriander along with a big pinch of salt. Toss well until the chickpeas are well coated, then tip out onto a baking tray and bake for 35 mins, moving them round the tray halfway through so they dry out evenly and are crunchy. Leave to cool, then store in an airtight container.

Steps:

• Tip the chickpeas into a bowl with the vegetable oil and chilli powder and mix until the chickpeas are coated with chilli. Transfer to a baking sheet, spread out the chickpeas, then cook for 25 mins. Remove from the oven and allow to cool. Sprinkle with sea salt before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375ºF/190ºC.
• Mix chickpeas and oil.
• In a small ball mix together corn flour & spices (except salt). Add to chickpeas and toss to coat.
• Bake on a baking sheet about 40 min.(or until crunchy).
