mediterranean wedge salad

Mediterranean chickpea wedge salad combines chickpeas, crunchy vegetable toppings, and hummus dressing for a delicious deconstructed falafel flavour. 

Mediterranean Chickpea Wedge Salad

(15 oz.) can chickpeas, drained and rinsed

olive oil

cumin

paprika

coriander

cinnamon

salt

black pepper

romaine lettuce hearts,

½ medium cucumber, thinly sliced into half moons

red onion, thinly sliced into half moons

red peppers, thinly sliced

feta cheese, crumbled

hummus

tahini

juice lemon

teaspoon salt

Place drained and rinsed chickpeas on a paper towel or kitchen towel to dry completely. 

In a medium bowl, combine chickpeas, olive oil, cumin, paprika, coriander, cinnamon, salt and pepper. Stir to combine, then place on a large half sheet baking pan lined with parchment paper, making sure the chickpeas are in a single layer. 

Bake for 25 minutes, shaking the pan halfway through to ensure they crisp up evenly on all sides. Set aside to cool.

Meanwhile, make the hummus dressing. In a small bowl, whisk together hummus, tahini, lemon juice, and salt. While whisking, slowly drizzle in the olive oil and mix until thoroughly combined. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Set aside. 

Slice romaine lettuce hearts in half or in quarters (depending on the size) to create large, individual portions. Place them on one large tray or on individual plates.

Top each lettuce heart with equal amounts of cucumber, red onion, and roasted red peppers. Top with heaping spoonfuls of roasted chickpeas. Then, drizzle the hummus dressing on top and garnish with crumbled feta cheese.

Serve immediately or at room temperature with some pita bread on the side.

So much wonderful flavor going on in this recipe, I'm loving it!! The coriander and cumin pair perfectly with the chickpeas. And yes, this salad is gorgeous. It paired perfectly with my steak but this would be amazing with any Greek meal.

Oh Sam! This looks absolutely delicious! I am seriously going to make this for my lunch today. All of it looks so damn good. Thanks for yet another awesome recipe.

The flavors here are perfect! I love the spices and the crunch, can't wait to try this new recipe!

Made this for the family and it was a hit!

A classic wedge salad is a favorite way to eat iceberg lettuce. Crispy and fresh with the best salad dressing. We’ve made a couple edits to the original wedge recipe, giving it a Mediterranean twist.
