A crunchy, flavorful, and protein-packed vegetarian snack.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a large bowl, combine the drained and rinsed chickpeas with olive oil, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
Spread the chickpeas in a single layer on a baking sheet.
Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until the chickpeas are crunchy, shaking the pan halfway through. The roasting time can depend on how well you drained the chickpeas; if you didn't drain well enough it will be longer.
Let cool slightly before serving. The chickpeas will become crispier as they cool.
