Chickpea Salad Balila


I love this salad, the ingredients and the flavors are great. It is a fresh yet flavorful salad that can be used as a side dish or main dish lunch as i usually make it. I found this recipe in the arab table by: may bsisu http://www.amazon.com/arab-table-recipes-culinary-traditions/dp/0060586141 a few years back and have been making it ever since.

Steps


Drain and rinse chickpeas and place in a medium sized bowl.
Add the onions and jalapeno.
Whisk together the garlic , salt , cumin , lemon juice , and olive oil.
Pour the dressing over the chickpeas and onions and stir gently to coat the salad.
Spoon out into a serving dish and garnish with tomato , parsley , cayenne and feta cheese.
Enjoy !.
