Dill Pickle Roasted Chickpeas

My youngest son loves dill pickles- like, really really loves them, so after a lot of tinkering I ended up with the following combination of oil/brine and spices for a crunchy roasted chickpea with a nice dill pickle tang.

Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 18 minutes

Equipment

  • Air Fryer

Ingredients
  

  • 1 can Chickpeas- 540 ml washed and dried
  • 3 Tbsp Dill pickle Brine
  • 1 Tbsp Olive Oil
  • 3/4 tsp Dried dill
  • 1/4 tsp Salt
  • 1/4 tsp Garlic powder

Instructions
 

  • Dry the chickpeas either with a paper towel or leave in the colander for a few minutes to drip after rinsing.
  • Toss them into the air fryer for a few minutes to remove the extra moisture.
  • While the chickpeas are drying mix together the dill pickle brine, oil and spices
  • Toss the dried chickpeas in the mixture and put back in the air fryer at 400 degrees for 15-18 minutes. Check regularly for crispiness.

Notes

Alternatively, you can bake the chickpeas in the oven. 
Bake at 425 for around 20 minutes. 
If you’d like to use them as a crunchy add-on to a salad or soup, I like to turn off the oven and let them sit for an extra 10 minutes or so.
