Za’atar Spiced Chickpeas

Serves: 8, ~½ cup each

Za’atar (zaah-tur) is a spice blend inspired by a Middle Eastern plant of the same name. The blend I used contains thyme, sesame seed, sumac, oregano, marjoram, coriander, chili pepper, cumin, and sesame oil.

 

Ingredients

2 15.5oz cans chickpeas, drained and rinsed

2 teaspoons Za’atar

¼ teaspoon chili powder, optional

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

 

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Combine all ingredients on a sheet pan and use a spatula to evenly coat the chickpeas with the other ingredients. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the chickpeas are browned, dry, and crunchy.
  2. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
