Marinated Chickpea Salad


One of the many salads I love making over the summer season is this marinated chickpea salad. It is easy to put together and lasts for days in your fridge. It is a forgiving salad as you can add or omit ingredients to your liking. It goes well as a side for a BBQ and I love serving it with grilled lemon chicken.


Ingredients

  • 1 can Chickpeas, drained
  • 1 clove Garlic, crushed
  • 1 Lemon, zested and juiced
  • Sea Salt and Freshly Ground Black Pepper to taste
  • 30 ml Olive oil
  • 1/2 cup Flat leaf parsley, chopped
  • 1/4 Parmesan shavings
  • 1 packet (150g) Baby Spinach, Optional

Method

  1. Mix all the ingredients together except the spinach.
  2. Marinate in an airtight container in the fridge until needed. Marinate for at least an hour.
  3. You can serve it just as it is or you can mix it with the baby spinach in a salad bowl and enjoy!
