Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat the oven to 425°F. In a bowl, toss 1 cup drained and rinsed canned chickpeas with 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, 1 tbsp za'atar seasoning, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, and 1/4 tsp salt until evenly coated.
  2. Step 2: Spread the chickpeas on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and roast for 20-25 minutes, shaking the pan halfway through, until crispy and golden.
  3. Step 3: Meanwhile, place 1 large (10 inch) flatbread on a baking sheet and brush with remaining 1 tbsp olive oil. Bake for 5 minutes until warm and slightly crisp.
  4. Step 4: Remove flatbread from oven, drizzle with 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice, and spread 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt evenly over the surface.
  5. Step 5: Top the flatbread with the roasted chickpeas and sprinkle 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley on top. Slice and serve warm.
