preparation

1. Spray a large, heavy nonstick skillet with nonstick cooking spray.

2. Add the chickpeas and season with salt and pepper as desired. Cook over medium heat, shaking skillet often, until the chickpeas are lightly browned, 2 to 4 minutes.

3. Cool slightly before serving. Leftover chickpeas will keep in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 days and can be reheated in the microwave or served cold.
