These garlic and herb roasted chickpeas are the best addition to your favorite salads, wraps, bowls, and more! They're coated with classic seasonings like garlic, oregano, parsley, cayenne, and more, then roasted to either chewy or crispy perfection.
Roasted chickpeas are a delicious and versatile recipe to have in your back pocket - they can be added to tons of dishes to make them better (and healthier), from protein bowls to salads and so much more. The seasonings are tame enough to be a safe, crowd-pleasing option, but still flavorful enough to want to make these again and again! I use the classics: garlic, onion, and cayenne powders, oregano, parsley, and red pepper flakes, and good old black pepper. Top them off with some flaky salt, roast them to any crispiness you want, and you're good to go!
