Toss the chickpeas in cornstarch.
After theyve dried, coat the chickpeas in cornstarch.

Dont overcrowd the chickpeas!
Your pan should not be too packed.
Let them sit undisturbed for a full four to five minutes in all their roomy glory.
This will help them brown, developing flavor and texture.
Once theyve browned, stir them once and turn off the heat.
Add your spice blend and salt, tossing to coat.
