Ingredients:
– 1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
– 1 lb beef sirloin, thinly sliced
– 2 tbsp olive oil
– 1 tsp garlic powder
– 1 tsp smoked paprika
– 1 tsp ground cumin
– Salt and black pepper to taste
– Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Spread the drained and rinsed chickpeas on a clean kitchen towel and gently rub to dry them completely. You want them as dry as possible to achieve maximum crispiness. Remove any loose skins that come off during this process.
3. Toss the dried chickpeas with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper until well coated.
4. Spread the seasoned chickpeas in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Roast in the oven for 25-30 minutes, shaking the pan halfway through to ensure even crisping. Remove when golden and crispy. Let cool slightly.
5. While the chickpeas are roasting, season the sliced beef sirloin with salt and pepper.
6. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Once hot, add the seasoned beef slices in a single layer. Sear for 2-3 minutes per side until nicely browned and cooked through to your desired doneness.
7. Serve the crispy chickpeas topped with the seared beef slices. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and added freshness.
8. Enjoy this delectable combination of textures and flavors as a standalone snack or as a main dish paired with your favorite side.
