Curried Chick Peas are roasted until crispy in a sweet glaze. Even though they are very tasty and addictive, you don’t have to worry about over-indulging on this healthy snack!

Crispy Curried Chick Peas

Okay, I guess you could eat more of this snack than you should. But, I’ve never heard of anyone who lost control of their diet by eating too many garbanzo beans! A half cup serving of beans is 110 calories and is packed with 7 grams of fiber and 7 grams of protein (according to the back of my can.) They are filling, to say the least. Garbanzo beans are very versatile. Easy Hummus with an Asian Twist has chick peas as the base. Toss them in a salad raw or roast them in the oven until they are crunchy. If you haven’t guessed, I’m a big fan of this last option. For more on my infatuation with chick peas, check out Spicy Cajun Roasted Chick Peas.

So…was it really necessary to post another chick pea recipe?

Well, yes. Yes, it was. I had way too many cans in my pantry and variety is the spice of life. I love to toss roasted chick peas in a salad and have them on hand after school. Not to mention, there are lots of snacking occasions on the horizon, from the Oscars to the Big Game…and bathing suit season is just around the corner.

The glaze in this recipe is inspired by  Chicken Curry in a Hurry sauce. Olive oil, honey (or agave nectar,) Dijon mustard and curry powder are combined to make a sweet glaze. It’s true that the olive oil and sweetener and a few extra calories…but, just look at how beautiful these are. Totally worth it!

    How long will they stay good…?
    Once they are roasted is it pretty much like roasted nuts that you keep in an air tight container?

      Hi! They keep for several days in an air tight container. But, they are best the same day. 🙂

    I tried making these, but was not successful. They became chicken food at least- little brown balls. Are they still soft inside or crunchy all the way through? I am a really good cook, I am just not doing something right.

      Hi! It sounds like you need to cook them for less time. They should be crunchy. But, you should be able to easily bite through them and they will be a little soft on the inside. Good luck!
