Fried Chickpeas
This is one of those recipes that sounded so weird, I just had to try it. Plus I had all the ingredients at home already except the lime. Instead of cayenne pepper, I used peppercorns. And I squeezed the juice from the lime in w/ the olive oil about 1/2 way through cooking. I'm munching on these now. They are really good, an 8 1/2. I am sure they could be an 9 - 9 1/2 but I over cooked them by 1-2 minutes. They looked perfect so I walked away for a minute to work on my laundry. And when I walked back into the kitchen, they were over cooked and at least 1/2 of them were burnt. If that hadn't been my last can of chickpeas I would have started over. Oh well, even the burnt ones taste good! P.S. Note the new leaf dish. I got that for the fall soups I'm sure I'll make. I also want to get the pumpkin shaped one.
