HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

01

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chopped onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.

02

Stir in minced garlic, ground cumin, ground coriander, and smoked paprika. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

03

Add the rinsed and drained chickpeas to the skillet. Cook for 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, allowing the chickpeas to warm through and absorb the spices.

04

Add the fresh spinach to the skillet. Cook, stirring constantly, until the spinach wilts, about 2-3 minutes.

05

Season the chickpea and spinach mixture with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper, or to taste. Remove from heat.

06

Warm the flatbreads according to package instructions, either in a dry skillet over medium heat for 1-2 minutes per side, or briefly in a microwave.

07

Divide the chickpea and spinach mixture evenly among the warm flatbreads. Garnish with fresh chopped cilantro and serve immediately.

Chef's Tips

For an extra layer of flavor, a squeeze of fresh lemon juice over the filling just before serving brightens the dish. You can also add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a little heat.

Easy Substitutions

Feel free to use kale instead of spinach, just cook it a few minutes longer until tender. Whole wheat flatbreads can be used for a healthier option. If you don't have fresh cilantro, parsley makes a good substitute.
