Servings: 8
Ingredients
16 (6-inch) corn tortillas, warmed
For the salsa:
1 pound tomatillos, skins removed and washed
1 small white onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, skins removed
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
½ lime, juiced
¼ cup lightly packed cilantro
For the chickpeas:
1 (15.5-ounce) can chickpeas, drained, rinsed and patted dry
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon ground cumin
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon fresh lime juice
For the cabbage slaw:
¼ cup plain Greek yogurt
Zest and juice of 1 lime
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
½ head purple cabbage, thinly sliced
1 jalapeño, thinly sliced
Directions
Position oven rack about 6 inches from the heating element and preheat the broiler. Line a rimmed baking sheet or broiler pan with foil and coat with nonstick cooking spray. Quarter the tomatillos and add them to a bowl along with the onion, garlic, and olive oil. Toss to coat. Spread mixture out onto the prepared baking sheet. Broil 4 minutes, stir, then broil 2 more minutes. Stir again and broil an additional 2 minutes, or until tomatillos and onion are blistered and browned. Remove and cool slightly before transferring to a blender or the bowl of a food processor. Add the lime juice and cilantro and puree until smooth to complete the salsa. Season with salt to taste, if desired. Set a large, non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add the oil. Add the chickpeas and cook, stirring often, until toasted, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add the cumin and cook 1 more minute. Remove from heat and stir in the salt and lime juice. Combine the yogurt, lime juice, zest, and salt in the bottom of a mixing bowl. Add the cabbage and jalapeño and toss to combine to finish the slaw. Serve chickpeas in warmed tortillas, then top with salsa and cabbage slaw.
