Ingredients

For the Bowl:

2 medium carrots, peeled and sliced

2 tbsp olive oil

1 tsp smoked paprika

Salt and pepper, to taste

For the Tahini Drizzle:

3 tbsp tahini

1 tbsp lemon juice

1 tbsp water (or more for desired consistency)

A pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven:

    • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

  2. Roast the Chickpeas:

    • Spread the drained and rinsed chickpeas on a baking sheet and pat them dry with a paper towel.

    • Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.

    • Roast for 20-25 minutes, shaking the pan halfway through, until golden and crispy.

  3. Roast the Vegetables:

    • While the chickpeas are roasting, spread the broccoli florets and sliced carrots on a separate baking sheet.

    • Drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat.

    • Roast for 20-25 minutes, until tender and lightly browned.

  4. Prepare the Tahini Drizzle:

    • In a small bowl, whisk together tahini, lemon juice, water (add more for desired consistency), and a pinch of salt. Adjust to your preferred texture.

  5. Assemble the Bowl:

    • Once the chickpeas and vegetables are roasted, combine them in a large bowl.

    • Drizzle the tahini sauce over the top and toss gently to combine.
