    To Make Vegan Bacon Chickpeas

    Mix together marinade ingredients in a small jug or container.

    Heat a frying pan over medium heat. Rinse and drain chickpeas, and then add to the heated frying pan.

    Cook chickpeas for a minute, and then add the marinade.

    Cook, stirring, until the liquid is absorbed. I like to cook the chickpeas for a bit longer to get them crispy, but be careful that you don’t burn them.
