Lemon Pesto Zucchini Noodles with Crispy Chickpeas

Servings

2-3

Ingredients

For the Sauce
For the Chickpeas
For the Zucchini Noodles

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Line one sheet tray with parchment paper. Add the chickpeas that have been drained, rinsed, and patted dry. Drizzle chickpeas with olive oil, spices, salt, and pepper. Bake for about 25 minutes, or until crispy, shaking the tray once halfway through.

For the pesto: combine all the pesto ingredients besides the oil in a food processor or blender. Blend for 20 seconds and then stream in olive oil until the mix becomes a sauce-like consistency. Taste for seasoning and adjust salt/pepper/honey. 

Meanwhile, in a large sauté pan add the cherry tomatoes with 1 tbsp of olive oil. Sauté for about 5 minutes over medium heat. Add the zucchini noodles. Cook on medium heat with a lid on the pan so that the zucchini spirals can soften. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring every minute. The goal is to get them slightly softened, not brown.

Once the liquid has evaporated and the spirals have softened artichoke hearts and pesto sauce. Stir to combine. Remove from the heat and add the cheese. Taste for seasoning and adjust salt/pepper accordingly. Enjoy!

This dish is great on its own as a light summer meal or could be served as a side with your protein of choice. Served warm or cold.
