         Title: Roasted Chickpeas   
    Categories: Snacks   
         Yield: 4 Servings   
       
     1 1/2 c  Cooked chickpeas -OR-   
        15 oz Can chickpeas;   
              - rinsed & drained   
         2 tb Olive oil   
              Salt   
       
     Roasted chickpeas, called "chichers" in my family, were one of my   
     grandmother's favorite snacks. When I was a child, my father and I   
     would go to the Italian market to purchase treats for her. Chichers   
     were always at the top of the list. Much like roasted peas, a popular   
     Asian snack food, roasted Chickpeas are crunchy and nut-like and can   
     be eaten out of hand or used as a salad garnish. We traditionally   
     enjoy them seasoned only with salt and olive oil, but you can   
     sprinkle them with your favorite spices, from chili powder to a jerk   
     spice blend.   
        
     Preheat the oven to 400?F. Place the chickpeas and olive oil in a   
     shallow baking dish large enough to accomodate the chickpeas in a   
     single layer. Toss gently to coat, then season to taste with salt.   
        
     Roast the chickpeas, stirring occasionally, until they begin to brown,   
     about 30 minutes, or even longer if you prefer them crunchier. Remove   
     from the oven and allow to cool. Sprinkle with a little more salt, if   
     desired. Serve at room temperature.
