Ingredients
- 1.5 cups canned chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- 0.5 cups gluten-free breadcrumbs
- 0.5 cup onion, finely chopped
- 0.25 cup fresh parsley, chopped
- 2 medium garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon ground coriander
- 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 large egg, lightly beaten
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, mash the chickpeas using a fork or a potato masher until they reach a coarse consistency. Some pieces can be left whole for texture.
Step 2
Add the gluten-free breadcrumbs, chopped onion, chopped parsley, minced garlic, ground cumin, ground coriander, red pepper flakes, salt, and ground black pepper to the mashed chickpeas.
Step 3
Stir in the fresh lemon juice and the lightly beaten egg. Mix all ingredients until well combined and a dough-like consistency forms.
Step 4
Divide the mixture into eight equal portions and shape each portion into a patty, about 1/2 inch thick.
Step 5
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the chickpea patties in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the skillet.
Step 6
Cook each patty for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until they turn golden brown and are cooked through.
Step 7
Transfer the cooked patties onto a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Step 8
Serve the chickpea patties warm with your choice of sides or in a gluten-free sandwich or wrap.
