Yummy Alert!: Spiced Fried Chickpeas

D bought me a subscription to Food Network magazine as I still struggle with cooking, but also love watching that channel.  I have the idea of beginning a recipe collection and hope to share some of my discoveries as I go along.  My first installment is: Spiced Fried Chickpeas.

AJ and I LOVE chickpeas as they are, but who can argue when a well known food magazine gives you the go ahead to deep fry them??? Not me!

The process is really simple:

1. Drain and rinse a can of chickpeas; pat dry 
2. Heat vegetable oil to 375 degrees 
3. Fry chickpeas in batches for until a light golden brown and crispy; about 4 minutes 
4. Drain on paper towel then toss in spices 

The recipe I have calls for salt, cumin, coriander and smoked paprika, but being the un-domestic Goddess that I am, I only have salt. Although, they really don't need them, I did sprinkle on some sea salt as they were drying. YUM!
