Ingredients:

  • 1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, rinsed, drained, and patted bone-dry
  • 1 large sweet potato (approx. 300g), peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
  • 2 cups broccoli florets (150g), cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 large red bell pepper, deseeded and sliced into strips
  • 0.5 medium red onion, cut into thick wedges
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 0.5 tsp cumin
  • 0.5 tsp garlic powder
  • 0.5 tsp sea salt
  • 0.25 tsp cracked black pepper
  • 0.33 cup runny tahini (80g)
  • 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tsp maple syrup
  • 1 clove garlic, finely minced
  • 3 tbsp ice cold water
  • 2 cups cooked quinoa
  • 0.25 cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 tbsp hemp seeds

Instructions:

  1. Preheat and Prep: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line your large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Note: A preheated oven ensures the roasting starts the second the tray hits the rack.
  2. Dry the Chickpeas: Roll the rinsed and drained chickpeas in a clean kitchen towel. Rub them gently until no surface moisture remains.
  3. Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, toss the dried chickpeas, 300g of sweet potato cubes, and 150g of broccoli florets.
  4. Add Aromatics: Add the sliced red bell pepper and red onion wedges to the bowl.
  5. Season Heavily: Drizzle with 2 tbsp olive oil. Sprinkle the smoked paprika, cumin, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper over the top.
  6. Toss for Coverage: Use your hands or a large spoon to mix until every piece is glistening with oil and spices.
  7. Single Layer Roast: Spread the mixture onto the baking sheet. Roast for 30 minutes, tossing halfway through, until the sweet potatoes are tender and the chickpeas are crisp.
  8. Whisk the Dressing: While the oven does the work, whisk together the tahini, lemon juice, maple syrup, and minced garlic.
  9. Emulsify: Gradually whisk in ice cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until a smooth, velvety dressing forms.
  10. Assemble: Divide 2 cups of cooked quinoa into four bowls. Top with the roasted mixture, a heavy drizzle of dressing, parsley, and hemp seeds.
