Ingredients
- 1 10 oz. steam bag frozen pre-shelled edamame beans, thawed
- 1 15 oz. can chickpeas, drained
- 1 tbsp. olive oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Let the bag of edamame thaw in the refrigerator overnight.
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
- Open the chickpeas, transfer to a colander, and rinse off the liquid. Shake the colander a few times to remove any excess water.
- Open the bag of edamame and add it to the colander with the chickpeas. Shake it a few more times to combine both beans.
- Transfer the bean mixture to a Ziploc bag. Add in the olive oil, salt and pepper, then seal. Shake the bag to coat the beans in the olive oil and seasonings.
- Open the bag and spread the beans evenly across a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake in the oven for 15 minutes. Remove the baking sheet, and use a spatula to flip over the beans (this helps them to roast evenly). Continue cooking for another 15-20 minutes, until the beans star to become slightly brown and crispy.
- Let cool, then eat immediately.
Notes
- The beans will lose their crispiness if not even within the first day. Store in an airtight container or bag for up to three days.
