Ingredients:

Serving

1 tbsp olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
2 to 3 garlic cloves, minced
two 15- to 16-oz cans chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1 to 2 tsp garam masala or good-quality curry powder
1/2 tsp turmeric
2 tsp grated fresh or jarred ginger
2 large tomatoes, diced
1 tbsp lemon juice
1/4 cup minced fresh cilantro , or to taste
salt to taste
hot cooked grain ( rice , quinoa , or couscous) , optional

Directions:

1. Heat the oil in a wide skillet. Add the onion and sauté until translucent. Add the garlic and continue to sauté until the onion is golden.
2. Add the chickpeas, garam masala, turmeric, ginger, tomatoes, lemon juice, and about 1/4 cup water. Bring to a simmer, then cook over medium-low heat for 10 minutes, stirring frequently. This should be moist and stewlike, but not soupy; add a little more water, if needed.
3. Stir in the cilantro and season with salt. Serve on its own in shallow bowls or over a hot cooked grain, if desired.
