Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup whole freekeh
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 teaspoon cumin seeds
Pinch of red-pepper flakes
1 large shallot, thinly sliced
1 can (15 ounces) chickpeas, rinsed and drained
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup lightly packed fresh cilantro leaves, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup pomegranate seeds
1 cup Greek yogurt, for serving

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan, bring freekeh and 3 cups water to a boil. Reduce heat to maintain a simmer, cover, and cook until tender and chewy, about 45 minutes. Drain. Transfer to a bowl and let cool.
  • Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add cumin seeds and stir until fragrant and toasted, about 30 seconds. Add pepper flakes and shallot; cook, stirring, until deeply caramelized, 2 to 3 minutes. Add chickpeas and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 3 minutes. Season with salt; transfer mixture to bowl with freekeh. Toss in lemon juice, cilantro, and pomegranate seeds.
  • To serve, dollop each portion with 1/4 cup yogurt, then drizzle with remaining 1 tablespoon oil.

CHICKPEA SALAD WITH FRESH HERBS AND SCALLIONS



Chickpea Salad With Fresh Herbs and Scallions image

A lighter, easier take on classic American potato salad, this version uses canned chickpeas in place of potatoes and favors Greek yogurt over mayonnaise. The trick to achieving the creamy texture of traditional potato salad is to mash some of the chickpeas lightly with a fork. It travels well, so it deserves a spot at your next picnic or desk lunch.

Time 15m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup plain full-fat Greek yogurt
3 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 tablespoons lemon juice (from 1 lemon)
1 1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons minced fresh dill, plus more for serving
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley, plus more for serving
3 (15-ounce) cans chickpeas, rinsed
1 cup finely diced celery (about 3 stalks)
1/2 cup thinly sliced scallions, white and green parts (2 to 3 scallions)

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, combine the yogurt, mayonnaise, lemon juice, mustard, salt and pepper. Whisk until smooth, then add the dill and parsley and stir to combine. Set aside.
  • Place the chickpeas in a large bowl and using a fork, lightly mash about 1/3 of them. Add the celery and scallions and toss.
  • Pour the dressing over the salad, toss well, and set aside at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before serving. Sprinkle with more dill and parsley and serve. (If you're not serving the dish immediately, you can store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before serving.)
