Seared Spinach & Chickpeas with Lemon
Ingredients
- 3 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion chopped
- 4 medium garlic cloves chopped
- 1/4 tsp each salt & pepper
- 3 scallions sliced, whites and greens separated
- 1 Tbsp tomato paste
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1/2 tsp ground allspice
- 15.5 oz can chickpeas, juices reserved
- 1 Tbsp lemon zest, 2 Tbsp lemon juice
- 10oz bunch spinach, bottom inch trimmed, roughly chopped
- 2 radishes halved and thinly sliced
Instructions
- In a 12-inch skillet over medium high heat, heat olive oil until shimmering. Add onion, garlic, salt and pepper. Stir occasionally until lightly browned 4-6 minutes. Add scallion whites, tomato paste, cumin, allspice, and continue to cook 2 minutes until mixture is well browned
- Stir in the chickpeas and reserved liquid along with lemon zest, scraping up brown bits. Add spinach a large handful at a time, stirring to help it wilt, adding more as space allows. Reduce to medium, stir occasionally until spinach is tender and mixture is stewy, approximately 10 minutes
- Stir in lemon juice, season with salt & pepper if desired. Transfer to serving dish and top with radishes, scallion greens and an additional drizzle of oil
