Spicy Roasted Chickpeas





I spotted this recipe on Salon.com last week and have renewed my love of chickpeas because of it!


Spicy Crisp-Roasted Chickpeas

Ingredients

    * 1 can garbanzo beans, drained, rinsed and thoroughly dried
    * ¼ teaspoon Chinese five-spice powder
    * ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper (more to taste)
    * ¼ teaspoon salt
    * ¼ teaspoon black pepper
    * 2 teaspoons olive oil

Directions ~ Toss everything together and spread on a baking sheet. Roast at 400 degrees for 40 minutes or until completely crunchy.

My next batch will be a bit spicier, but these really had good flavor. They'd be good in a trail mix...or just in my belly.
