Description
These fried chickpeas are one of those healthy fried options. I love them because they’re made from chickpeas, coconut oil and seasonings.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cans of chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 2 teaspoons of each: cumin, chili powder, garlic, smoked paprika, sea salt, pepper
Instructions
- Dry the chickpeas with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
- In a large frying pan over medium low heat, melt the coconut oil.
- Add the chickpeas and spices to the pan, and turn the heat to medium. Fry for 10–12 minutes or until desired crispiness.
- Serve and enjoy!
Notes
- You can adjust the spices to customize your fried chickpeas. Try curry-flavored ones or Italian-spiced ones.
- You can swap the coconut oil for the cooking oil of your choice, though it will change the nutrition a bit.
