Author's Notes

Store in a resealable container for up to 7 days. Eat at room temperature or reheat in the microwave for 2 minutes, or on the stove over medium-low heat for 5 minutes.

For freezing, store in small freezer-safe containers for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge. For a single portion, reheat for 2 minutes in the microwave or in a small pot over medium-low heat for 5 minutes.

Cooking Instructions

Hide images
step 1
Heat Olive Oil (2 Tbsp) in a skillet over medium heat. Add the Red Bell Pepper (1) and Jalapeño Pepper (1) and cook until they begin to soften, about 2 minutes.
step 2
Add the Ground Cumin (1 tsp), Ground Turmeric (1 tsp), and Ground Cardamom (1 tsp), then stir until fragrant, about 1 minute (frying the spices makes them more potent).
step 3
Add the Chickpeas (2 cans) and Vegetable Broth (1 1/2 cups) to the pan and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to low, and simmer until half the liquid has evaporated, about 5 minutes, then stir in Fresh Cilantro (2 Tbsp), juice of the Lemon (1), Salt (1/4 tsp), and Ground Black Pepper (1/4 tsp).
step 4
Serve warm. These spiced chickpeas go great with rice or naan!
