  • 240 gr/ 1¼ cups canned chickpeas (garbanzo beans), rinsed and drained
  • 10 medium red radishes, sliced thinly

Instructions
  1. Heat up a skillet on medium heat, add 1 tbsp of olive oil, then add the chickpeas. Roast them 10-15 minutes or until golden, tossing them frequently. Just before turning off the heat, season with salt, pepper, and orange zest.

  5. Serve as main or as a side dish.
