I just got back from a trip and had nothing in the fridge! I came up with this today. We all know migas is usually a winter dish and pretty heavy, but here’s my #gluten-free, high #plant-protein version—perfect to serve with grapes, melon, or pomegranate. I hope you like it, and if you try it, let me know what you think! Thanks, fellow cooking fans!

Steps

1

Drain the chickpeas well and mash them with a fork.
2

Heat a small amount of olive oil in a pan, sauté the sliced garlic, then add the chickpeas (you don’t need much oil—just sauté, don’t fry).
3

Stir well and add the paprika, cumin, sesame seeds, salt, pepper, and sesame oil if using. Add the diced ham. Keep mixing so the chickpeas combine with everything, continuing to mash and break them up.
4

Add the vegetable broth (just a little for flavor) and let it evaporate.
5

Keep stirring until the chickpeas are slightly toasted.
6

Serve and enjoy. I like it with melon, grapes, or pomegranate!

Hope you enjoy it! Thank you, friends!
