Here is a dish you can make in literally less than ten minutes. You can have it for lunch, or pair it with some rice or noodles for dinner.
All you really need is a can of chickpeas (aka garbanzo beans), green onions, a lemon, shrimp and blackened seasoning. Okay, some oil, salt & pepper is necessary too, but most likely you have most of the ingredients at home already!
Ingredients (for one serving)
1 cup chickpeas
2 teaspoons lemon juice
4 green onions, sliced thinly
1 teaspoon olive oil
salt & pepper
1 teaspoon sunflower oil
10 shrimp, peeled and deveined
blackened spice
Directions
1. In a bowl combine chickpeas with green onions, lemon juice and olive oil. Season with salt & pepper.
2. Heat sunflower oil in a nonstick pan.
3. Dredge shrimp in blackened seasoning and cook for about 1-2 minutes on each side in sunflower oil.
4. Dish out your lemony chickpeas on a plate and top with hot shrimp. Eat!
Note: this recipe will appear on Natasha's 5 Star Foodie blog on July 8th!

Chickpeas and shrimp..YUM..Figtreeapps
Those look quite delicious! Aren't the chickpeas too dry if you eat them like this though? I always have a love/hate relationship with chickpeas. I like them in some dishes but they can also be quite dry. Maybe it's the brand I am using or did you make them fresh?
Looks yummy to me!
Great fast recipe!
Scrumptious!
Quick, simple and delicious recipe is always welcome in my kitchen.

This looks perfect. Light, quick, and yummy.
I'll be making this tonight~
Thanks!
I love the combination. Great Dish
I love this recipe! I will definitely be making it soon. Chickpeas are awesome - thank you!
Sounds delicious-I love shrimp & chickpeas! I enjoy cooking beans from scratch, especially chickpeas, because I find the canned varieties often too al dente for my taste. Cooking from scratch really doesn't require a lot of effort, and the results are far superior.
