Aglio e Olio Chickpeas

Aglio e Olio is a traditional Italian pasta dish that translates to "garlic and oil". But instead of pasta, we've subbed in our PLUMP, NUTTY, GLORIOUS QUEEN CHICKPEAS for an easier, healthier + just as delicious alternative. It uses just 4 other basic ingredients - garlic, olive oil, lemon + pasley - making it a speedy, plant-based dinner, mopped up with a hunk of crusty bread.

Takes: 20 minutes

Ingredients

5 tbsp olive oil
4 garlic cloves, finely sliced
1 x 570g jar Queen Chickpeas - with their bean stock
½ tsp chilli flakes - or to taste
50g fresh parsley
The zest of 1 lemon, wedges to serve
Crusty bread, to serve (optional)

Made with:
Queen Chickpeas

Directions

step 1
Heat the olive oil in a pan over a low heat. Add the garlic and chilli flakes and cook for 1-2 minutes until the garlic is fragrant and translucent, but not coloured.
step 2
Pour the chickpeas into the pan with their bean stock and mix well to combine in the garlicky oil. Swill the chickpea jar ⅓ with water and pour that into too. Simmer away on a medium heat until the stock starts to thicken and emulsify into a creamy sauce, stirring occasionally - roughly 7-8 minutes.
step 3
Once the sauce has thickened, add most of the chopped parsley - reserving some for garnish - and grate in the zest of 1 lemon. Season well with cracked black pepper and salt to taste.
step 4
Spoon into bowls, finish with more parsley, a drizzle of olive oil and cracked black pepper. Mop up the juices with crusty bread, if you like.
