Saucy Coconut Spiced Chickpeas

February 15, 2022 by AMYLEEACTIVE Leave a Comment

These Saucy Coconut Spiced Chickpeas are one of my go-to quick, easy, delicious plantbased meals to make for a weeknight dinner. They are so flavoursome and satisfying, perfect over cauliflower rice or on top of naan bread!

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp coconut oil
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 brown onion, chopped
  • 1/2 tsp ground turmeric
  • 1/4 tsp ground ginger
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 1/4 cup tomato paste
  • 1/2 cup full fat coconut milk, with the cream
  • 1 can of chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • To serve: 1/2 lime, 1/2 cup fresh coriander, chopped

Method

  1. Heat oil in a large pan or pot over medium heat. Add onion and cook for 5 minutes, stirring. Stir in garlic and cook for another 1 minute.
  2. Add turmeric, ginger, salt, and pepper and toast for 30 seconds.
  3. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring, for another 1 minute.
  4. Pour in coconut milk, being sure to use some of the hardened cream at the top, and bring to a boil. Add in chickpeas.
  5. Reduce to a simmer and cover for 15-20 minutes.
  6. Remove from heat and squeeze over lime juice and fresh coriander. Serve over rice, cauliflower rice or naan and enjoy!
