Chickpea stew is a hearty, flavorful dish celebrated across Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, and North African cuisines. Typically made with chickpeas simmered in a rich tomato-based broth, it's often enriched with onions, garlic, carrots, celery, and warming spices like cumin, turmeric, and paprika. Some variations may include greens, potatoes, or protein additions such as chicken or lamb. Packed with plant-based protein and fiber, chickpeas support digestion and promote satiety, making this dish nourishing and satisfying. It's also an excellent source of iron, folate, and antioxidants, thanks to both the chickpeas and nutrient-rich vegetables. However, sodium levels can rise if prepared with canned chickpeas or excessive seasoning, so opting for fresh ingredients and moderating salt use keeps this dish heart-healthy. Versatile and easy to customize, chickpea stew is a wholesome choice for vegetarians, vegans, and all food enthusiasts.
