Sauted Garbanzo Beans Recipes

ROASTED SPICY GARBANZO BEANS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Pour the olive oil into an ovenproof pan. Stir the garlic, cumin, and cayenne pepper into the olive oil and mix well. Add the garbanzo beans and toss to coat evenly.
• Bake in preheated oven until garbanzo beans turn golden, about 30 minutes. Remove from oven, and sprinkle with feta cheese and thyme. Serve warm.

SAUTEED COLLARD GREENS AND GARBANZO BEANS

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add bell pepper and green onion; cook until onion is soft and whites are translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garbanzo beans and garlic; cook and stir for 5 minutes. Add collard greens; cook until greens wilt and turn bright green, 2 to 4 minutes.
• Transfer to a large serving bowl. Splash vinegar over greens and sprinkle with sea salt. Serve immediately.

CRISPY GARBANZO BEANS

Steps:

• Spread out the garbanzos on a baking sheet and let them dry, uncovered, in the refrigerator overnight. (If you forget to let them dry overnight, it's okay; you'll just need to cook them longer.)
• Place the bacon in a large skillet over medium-low heat and cook until browned and crispy, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Drain on a paper-towel-lined plate; reserve the fat in the pan. Eat the bacon as snack while you cook.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Add the dried garbanzos to the pan with the rendered bacon fat. Season with a generous pinch of salt and add the rosemary. Cook over medium-low heat for about 2 minutes, then remove the rosemary sprig. Transfer the garbanzos to a baking sheet and bake until crispy, 35 to 40 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes. (If you did not dry the garbanzos overnight, bake them for 45 to 50 minutes.)
• Let cool to room temp before serving.

SAUTEED CHICKPEAS AND KALE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Grease a cookie sheet and keep aside.
• Drain and rinse the garbanzo beans if using from a can. Get rid of as much moisture as possible and transfer to the greased cookie sheet. Drizzle 1 tbsp. of olive oil on top and season with salt and freshly cracked black pepper. Toss to mix. Roast in the oven for about 25 minutes. Halfway through, toss again once.
• While the chickpeas are roasting, cut the kale into thin strips and chop the stems into no more than 1/4 inch thick pieces. Slice the garlic thinly or mince depending on preference.
• Heat the remaining oil in a skillet on medium high heat and start cooking the kale and garlic together. Keep cooking till the kale starts wilting and then season with salt, freshly cracked black pepper and paprika. Stir for a couple of minutes and add the chicken stock (or vegetable broth or water). Cook till the kale softens and the moisture evaporates.
• Add handfuls of roasted chickpeas to the cooked kale and serve.

SAUTéED ZUCCHINI & CHICKPEAS

Steps:

• Heat oil and butter in a deep (preferably non-stick) pan over a medium heat until it begins to foam.
• Add the zucchini and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes, until slightly browned.
• Add the chickpeas.
• Place a circle of non-stick baking paper directly on the surface of the zucchini and chickpeas. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook for 8 minutes or until the zucchini is soft. Taste, and season with salt and pepper.
• To transport: Cool then place in an airtight container.
• To re-heat: Heat sautéed zucchini and chickpeas in a deep pan over a medium heat, stirring often, for 5-7 minutes or until heated through.
• Microwave reheating: Spoon the zucchini and chickpeas into a microwave-safe bowl, cover with lid or plastic wrap and heat on medium, stirring every minute, for 4-5 minutes or until heated through.
