Teriyaki Chickpeas

Take chickpeas to the next level with this insane Teriyaki recipe.

Ingredients

1 can chickpeas, drained and rinsed

Marinade
1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tbsp brown sugar
2 tbsp maple syrup
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp ginger powder
1/2 tbsp sesame oil
2 tbsp rice vinegar
1 tbsp cornflour (mixed with 2tbsp water)

Method

Combine the marinade ingredients, ensuring they blend seamlessly, then toss in the chickpeas, coating them thoroughly. Transfer the mixture to a sizzling fry pan and simmer for 10-15 minutes until the sauce thickens and becomes sticky. This versatile dish pairs wonderfully with various accompaniments—I personally love it with rice and veggies for a wholesome meal, but I've also experimented by incorporating it into pasta, resulting in an irresistibly flavourful dish.
