Ingredients

  • 2 (15 ounce) cans garbanzo beans (chick peas)
  • cooking spray
  • 1 tablespoon cajun seasoning, heaping
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder (optional)
  • cayenne, to taste

Method

  • Drain garbanzo's in a strainer and rinse well with cool water.
  • Shake to help remove water.
  • Let sit to drain while proceeding.
  • Cover a rimmed cookie sheet or shallow casserole dish with cooking spray.
  • Pour garbanzos on the foil and spread them into a single layer.
  • Take a few sheets of paper towel and gently press over the top of the beans just to remove any extra liquid- speeds cooking time too.
  • Spray top of beans with cooking spray and sprinkle seasonings over the beans.
  • Shake pan to help distribute the seasoning and make sure the beans are all in a single layer.
  • Place pan in an oven and set to 350 F- no need to preheat.
  • Use lowest rack on oven and return every 15-20 minutes or so to shake the pan so nothing burns.
  • Be gentle or they may spill over the sides.
  • Cook until beans are browned and crispy.
  • About 45 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and pour into a plastic bowl with tight fitting lid to cool.
  • Careful they are HOT to the touch!
  • Snack away!
  • Keep these stored in the bowl for best freshness or in a ziploc bag.
