Ingredients
  

Roasted Chickpeas

  • 1 can 15 ounces chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Greek Yogurt Dip

  • 1 cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon fresh dill chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  • Drain the chickpeas in a colander and rinse them thoroughly under cold running water to remove excess sodium and canning liquid.
  • Spread the chickpeas onto a clean kitchen towel and gently pat them completely dry. Remove any loose skins if desired, as this can help improve crispiness.
  • Transfer the dried chickpeas to a mixing bowl and add the olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
  • Toss the chickpeas until every piece is evenly coated with oil and seasoning.
  • Spread the seasoned chickpeas onto the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, making sure they are not crowded together.
  • Roast for 30 to 40 minutes, stirring once halfway through cooking, until the chickpeas are golden brown and crispy.
  • While the chickpeas are roasting, prepare the Greek yogurt dip by adding the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, garlic powder, chopped dill, salt, and pepper to a small mixing bowl.
  • Stir the dip until completely smooth and well combined, then place it in the refrigerator to chill while the chickpeas finish cooking.
  • Remove the roasted chickpeas from the oven and allow them to cool for about 5 minutes. They will continue to crisp slightly as they cool.
  • Transfer the chickpeas to a serving bowl and place the chilled Greek yogurt dip alongside them for dipping.
  • Serve immediately while the chickpeas are warm and crispy and the dip is cold and refreshing.
