1 tsp smoked paprika

1/2 tsp garlic powder

1/4 tsp red pepper flakes

1 tsp lemon zest

Kosher salt

Instructions

Step 1

Heat the oven to 400 F. Dry the chickpeas very well so they roast instead of steam.

Toss the chickpeas with the olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, red pepper flakes, and a pinch of salt.

Step 3

Roast until the chickpeas are crisp and dry on the outside, shaking the pan once or twice.

Step 4

Toss with the Parmesan and lemon zest while still warm, then let cool slightly before serving.
