Ingredients

  • 1 can (15 oz) canned chickpeas
  • 1 cup plain yogurt
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 piece pita bread
  • ¼ cup fresh parsley

Instructions

  1. 1

    Drain and rinse the 1 can chickpeas. Pat dry with a towel. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.

  2. 2

    Add chickpeas to the skillet. Cook, shaking occasionally, until they start to brown and crisp, about 8 minutes. Stir in 1 tsp cumin and a pinch of salt.

    Meanwhile, tear the 1 pita into bite-size pieces. Toast in a dry skillet over medium heat until golden and crunchy, about 3 minutes.

  4. 4

    Spread the 1 cup yogurt onto a plate or bowl. Top with the warm chickpeas, toasted pita, and 1 tbsp olive oil.

  5. 5
