Fried Chickpeas

Ingredients

• Smoked salt - 1 tablespoon
• Cayenne Pepper - ½ spoons
• Olive Oil - 1 fl oz
• Chickpea - 17.6 oz
• Orange zest - to taste
• Flaky sea salt - to taste

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Drain the liquid from the cans of canned chickpeas and allow the peas to dry. In a small bowl, mix together paprika and cayenne pepper.

Step 2

Place a large skillet over medium heat, heat the olive oil, and sauté the chickpeas in it, possibly in two batches, until they are nicely browned.

Step 3

Using a slotted spoon, remove the cooked chickpeas and transfer them to a paper towel to absorb excess oil. Once the oil has been absorbed, place the chickpeas in a bowl, sprinkle with a mixture of paprika and cayenne pepper, season with salt to taste, add lime zest, toss to combine, and serve immediately.
