Air-fried chickpea snacks are intensely flavored and incredibly crunchy. Drying the chickpeas is essential to a good crunch, so don’t skip this step. If you have time, leave them out on the counter to dry for an hour or two before frying.”
Ingredients
1 (15 ounce) can unsalted chickpeas, rinsed and drained
1½ tablespoons toasted sesame oil
¼ teaspoon smoked paprika
¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper
⅛ teaspoon salt
Cooking spray
2 lime wedges
Directions
1Spread chickpeas on several layers of paper towels. Top with more paper towels and pat until very dry, rolling the chickpeas under the paper towels to dry all sides.
2Combine the chickpeas and oil in a medium bowl. Sprinkle with paprika, crushed red pepper and salt. Pour into an air fryer basket and coat with cooking spray. Cook at 400°F until very well browned, 12 to 14 minutes, shaking the basket occasionally. Squeeze lime wedges over the chickpeas and serve.
