Ingredients

Scale
  • Olive oil
  • 2 (15 oz) cans chickpeas, or you can use homemade
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp granulated garlic
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • Salt, to taste
  • Corn tortillas
  • Optional taco toppings: avocado, salsa, hot sauce, jalapeño, cabbage, lettuce, tomato, cheese, etc…

Instructions

  1. Start by rinsing and draining your chickpeas.  I like to pat them down with a kitchen towel to get rid of most of the moisture.  Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add a few tablespoons of olive oil.
  2. Next, add your chickpeas to the hot oil and let cook until crispy and golden, 5-7 minutes.  I like to mix my spices up while the chickpeas are cooking.  Add all spices to a small bowl and mix until combined.  Pour over the chickpea and mix until all chickpeas are coated.
  3. You may want to add a little extra olive oil at this point if it seems too dry.  Then, cook for just a few minutes until spices are nice and browned, but not burnt.
  4. Assemble your tacos: Warm your tortilla and then add a few spoonfuls of the chickpea mixture.  Top with your favorite taco toppings and enjoy!
