Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1/2 cup chickpeas (garbanzo beans) (drained and rinsed)
  • 2 cups cilantro leaves (packed)
  • 2 garlic cloves (minced)
  • 2 Tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup olive oil

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Place chickpeas in a single layer on a baking sheet covered with aluminum foil.
  • Roast chick peas for 25-30 minutes. Chickpeas will "rattle" in the pan when done and be slightly crunchy on the outside.
  • Allow chickpeas to cool.
  • Place cilantro, garlic, chickpeas, lemon juice, sesame oil, salt and pepper into a food processor.
  • Slow stream in olive oil and pulse until the chickpeas are chopped and the mixture is a spreadable consistency.
