    While vegetables are roasting, heat a large skillet over medium heat and add chickpeas to a mixing bowl and toss with cumin , chili powder , garlic powder , salt , pepper , oregano (optional) , and turmeric (optional) .
    chickpeas: 2.67 15-oz cans, cumin: 1.67 tsp, chili powder: 2 tsp, garlic powder: 2 tsp, salt: 2/3 tsp, pepper: 2/3 tsp, oregano (optional): 1.33t sp, turmeric (optional): 2/3 tsp
  5. 5
    Once hot, add 1 Tbsp oil (amount as original recipe is written // use half of total amount if altering batch size) and chickpeas and sauté, stirring frequently. If they’re browning too quickly, turn down heat. If there isn’t much browning going on, increase heat. I found 10 minutes total at slightly over medium heat was perfect.

    Once the chickpeas are browned and fragrant, remove from heat and set aside.
