Za'atar Chickpeas

Ingredients

• 2 cups cooked chickpeas (or one 15-ounce can, drained and rinsed)

• 2 tablespoons olive oil

• 2 tablespoons za'atar seasoning

• 1 teaspoon garlic powder

• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika

• 1/2 teaspoon sea salt or to taste

• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

2. Pat the chickpeas dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture. This will help them get crispy.

3. In a large bowl, toss the chickpeas with olive oil, za'atar, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.

4. Spread the seasoned chickpeas in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

5. Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the chickpeas are golden and crispy.

6. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy as a snack or add to salads for extra crunch!
