A New Way With Chickpeas

I love Indian food and so does my husband.  We have this wonderful restaurant in Herndon that we frequent and it's really amazing.  We had it not long ago and I always order the potato and chickpea dish which reminded me how much I love chickpeas.  So, I made these as a little grab and go snack.  They are super delicious.  Very yummy and healthy and can be eaten on their own, thrown in a salad or anything else.  Enjoy!

Roasted Chickpeas

Ingredients:1 15-oz can Garbanzo Beans
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
1/2 tsp paprika

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 400 degree F.
Drain and rinse the garbanzo beans in a large colander. Continue to rinse until all the foamy liquid goes away.
Line the counter with a few sheets of paper towel. Place the drained garbanzo beans on top of the paper towel and let them dry for a few minutes.
Once the beans are dried, place them on a parchment lined baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and then sprinkle on the spices. Using your hands, toss the beans around so they are all fully coated.
Place the baking sheet in the oven for 20 minutes and all to roast. After 20 minutes, remove the pan from the oven and give the beans a little shake and then place back into the oven for another 20 minutes.
Season with salt if needed once fully roasted and then serve.
