Time 20m

Yield 2-4

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (15 oz) can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice, from one lemon
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 small garlic clove, minced
¼ teaspoon salt
⅛ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 5oz Bag or Container Baby Kale or Kale/Dark Greens Mix
½ cup shaved Parmigiano-Regianno

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425° F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
  • Place the chickpeas on the prepared baking sheet and toss with the olive oil, salt and pepper. Roast for 10-12 minutes, stirring once, until the chickpeas are slightly shrunken and crispy. Let cool.
  • In a large bowl, combine the lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, salt and pepper. Add the greens and toss until evenly coated. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary (I usually add a bit more salt). Arrange on plates and top with Parmigiano-Regianno shavings and crispy roasted chickpeas.
  • Note: If you can't find baby kale, feel free to substitute any other deep green blend, arugula or Lacinato kale (you'll just have to chop the leaves and let it marinate a bit).
