Asia BBQ roasted chickpeas

This recipe was taken from centuries old cooking techniques and when possible applied modern cooking methods and/or ingredients.  It uses Asian cooking styles, Asian Spices, Asian Sauces and Asian Ingredients.  The style of cooking may have a slight alteration while still maintaining the dish's overall purpose.  In this blog we touch on recipes that may be predominant for the Chinese Cuisines.  We will also share recipes based upon country, or regions such as: Burma, Cambodia, Indian, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Laos, Malaysia, Nepal, Philippines, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, Thailand, Tibet and Vietnam.  Some cuisines are considered South Asian, South East Asian, Central Asian and/or Middle Eastern and may not be strictly connected to a specific country or culture.

Recipe Makes for 1 1/2 cups:

1 tablespoon smoked paprika

1 tablespoon onion powder

1½ teaspoons light brown sugar

1½ teaspoons garlic salt

½ teaspoon chili powder

½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

1½ cups canned chickpeas, rinsed and drained

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

Directions:

 Preheat the oven to 425ºF.

In a small bowl, whisk together the paprika, onion powder, brown sugar, garlic salt, chili powder, and pepper.

Pat the chickpeas completely dry with a towel and remove any of the skins that become loose. Add the chickpeas to a bowl and toss them with the olive oil and three-quarters of the spice mixture. 

Mix well to coat the chickpeas and spread them out on a nonstick baking sheet. 

Bake the chickpeas for 20 minutes, toss them with a spatula, and bake for 15 minutes more. Remove the pan from the oven and let the chickpeas cool on the baking sheet.

Taste the chickpeas and season them with the additional spice mix if needed. If you don’t need it, simply place it in a sealed plastic bag and save it for the next batch.


Roasted chickpeas are best the day they are made—after a few hours they can start to lose their crunch. However, you can store them in a container with a sheet of plastic wrap lightly covering the top for 2 to 3 days.
