Crispy Crunchy Roasted Chili-Lime Chickpeas
Roasted Chickpeas are a crispy, crunchy healthy snack are insanely addicting, guilt free and so easy to make yourself! Skip buying those over priced tiny bags at the grocery store and make a big batch for yourself!
Ingredients
- 15 oz can of chickpeas rinsed, drained, dried
- 1 tsp olive oil
- ½ tsp chili lime seasoning or whatever u like
- pinch kosher salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. I used "convection roast" setting to circulate the heat.
- Drain and rinse chickpeas. Line a baking sheet with paper towel, place chick peas on paper towel in single layer. Let paper towel soak up moisture for at least 20 minutes. You want the chickpeas very dry. If they are still wet, change out damp paper towel for a dry one and let continue to air dry.
- Remove paper towel and place baking sheet in oven. Start the crisping by roasting the chickpeas "naked" for 20 minutes.
- Remove from oven, and olive oil and seasoning, gently toss to coat the chickpeas with oil and spice. Return to oven and bake an additional 10 minutes.
- Turn heat off, open oven door and let chickpeas rest in oven for another 10 minutes.
- Remove from oven and start snacking!
