Roast Your Chickpeas In Salad Dressing To Get A Pop Of Flavor
By Ariana DiValentino
For a crispy, crunchy, nutrient-dense snack, toss a can of chickpeas in a flavorful, oil-based salad dressing and roast them for about half an hour.
Roasted chickpeas in your oven are already a no-brainer to make, and using salad dressing lets you skip the step of seasoning them while still packing in a lot of flavor.
Using oil-based salad dressings to coat the chickpeas provides the fat necessary for them to cook and attain that browned, toasty flavor.
Experiment with whatever you may have in the fridge — Italian dressing or balsamic vinaigrette will infuse your dish with classic Mediterranean-inspired flavor.
