If you're seeking a quick and delicious addition to your dinner table, look no further than this Quick & Crispy Air Fryer Chickpeas recipe. Not only are chickpeas incredibly versatile, but they also make a nutritious and satisfying snack or side dish.

To start, rinse and drain a can of chickpeas, ensuring to pat them dry with a clean tea towel. This step is crucial for achieving that delightful crunch. Toss them in a bowl with a drizzle of olive oil, a sprinkle of smoked paprika, garlic powder, and a pinch of salt, giving them a good mix to coat evenly. Preheat your air fryer to 200°C (around 400°F) and place the seasoned chickpeas into the basket in a single layer.

Cook for about 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even crisping. The result? Golden, crunchy chickpeas bursting with flavour, perfect for adding some texture to salads, grain bowls, or simply enjoying as a guilt-free nibble. Serve hot, and watch them disappear in no time!
