Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Step 2: In a large bowl, combine 2 cups drained chickpeas, 1 pint halved cherry tomatoes, 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, 3 minced garlic cloves, 1 tsp dried oregano, 3/4 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper; toss thoroughly to coat all ingredients.
  3. Step 3: Spread the chickpea and tomato mixture evenly on the prepared baking sheet. Roast in the oven for 20 minutes until the tomatoes soften and chickpeas begin to brown.

  5. Step 5: Remove from oven and sprinkle 1 tsp finely grated lemon zest and 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley over the dish before serving warm.
