Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

15 oz chickpeas, 1 can, drained and rinsed
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon italian herb
2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese

Steps:

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
Carefully dry the chickpeas. Removing the skins is optional and they will come off easily. The drier you get them, the crunchier they'll be!
In a medium bowl, add dried chickpeas, olive oil, garlic powder, herbs and parmesan. Toss well to coat evenly.
Spread chickpeas out on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
Roast for 15-20 minutes.
Mix around on baking sheet and roast for additional 15-20 minutes, or until golden.
Cool for 5-10 minutes.
Enjoy!

Marinated Salmon Seared in a Pepper Crust image

Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 garlic clove, pressed in a garlic press or minced and mashed to a paste
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon sugar
3/4 pound center-cut salmon fillet, skinned and halved
4 teaspoons coarsely ground black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

In a sealable plastic bag combine well the soy sauce, the garlic, the lemon juice, and the sugar, add the salmon, coating it well, and let it marinate, sealed and chilled, for 30 minutes. Remove the salmon from the bag, discarding the marinade, pat it dry, and press 2 teaspoons of the pepper onto each piece of salmon, coating it thoroughly. In a heavy skillet heat the oil over moderately high heat until it is hot but not smoking and in it sauté the salmon for 2 minutes on each side, or until it just flakes.
Transfer the salmon with a slotted spatula to paper towels and let it drain for 30 seconds.

Lemony Salmon and Spiced Chickpeas image

Provided by David Tamarkin

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 lemon, thinly sliced, seeds removed
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1 (1 1/2-lb.) salmon fillet, preferably skin-on
1/2 tsp. kosher salt, plus more
Freshly ground black pepper
1 (15-oz.) can chickpeas, rinsed, patted dry
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
2 tsp. za'atar
1 tsp. fresh lemon juice
4 cups baby arugula or baby spinach
4 radishes, trimmed, thinly sliced
Flaky sea salt

Steps:

Place a rack in lower third of oven; preheat to 300°F. Toss lemon slices in a large bowl with a drizzle of oil. Arrange slices in an even layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Set salmon on lemons. Season salmon all over with kosher salt and pepper, then drizzle and rub with some oil. Roast until salmon is just barely opaque in the middle, 12-17 minutes, depending on thickness. If you like your salmon well-done, cook it a few minutes longer, but keep in mind that you risk the chance it will dry out. Let salmon cool, then flake into medium-size pieces with a fork.
Meanwhile, bring chickpeas, garlic, za'atar, and remaining 1/2 cup oil to a bare simmer in a small skillet over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring occasionally and reducing heat if needed, 10 minutes. Stir in 1/2 tsp. kosher salt (less if your za'atar is salty) and remove skillet from heat.
Using a slotted spoon, transfer chickpeas to a medium bowl, leaving oil behind. Whisk lemon juice into oil; taste dressing and season with more kosher salt and a few grinds of pepper if needed.
Toss arugula in a large bowl with 1 tsp. dressing. Divide among bowls along with radishes, chickpeas, and salmon (and lemons if desired); drizzle with more dressing. Sprinkle with sea salt and more pepper.
