Artichoke Salad With Chickpeas Recipe

Artichoke Salad With Chickpeas offers you the taste of Italy on a plate. Each bite has everything from hearty chickpeas to sour artichoke coated in a herbed dressing.

Artichoke is one of the ingredients many people are afraid to use frequently. I am among those people; however, I try to get out of my comfort zone and try to buy more of it and cook it.

Artichoke Salad With Chickpeas RecipeToday, I have used canned marinated artichoke with fantastic taste, and I like to use it in many salads. The flavor from the canned artichoke is simply fabulous. It pairs excellently with roasted peppers, fresh tomatoes, and chickpeas.

It is a colorful and fresh salad with an abundance of veggies, roasted peppers, and a simple but yummy herbed vinaigrette.

I like salads. Any of them are welcomed and savored. However, many ingredients go well together; others may go wrong. More ideas and recipes are the advantage not to get bored with making the same always.

This salad sounds odd, but you will change your mind if you try it. It turned out to be super delicious, hearty, and fresh. I liked everything from taste, color, and satisfaction. Some of my exciting salad recipes you may be interested in are:

Artichoke Salad Ingredients:

Artichoke Salad With Chickpeas Ingredients

  • One cup canned marinated artichokes
  • 1 tbsp Basil, fresh
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes
  • One can chickpeas
  • One shallot onion

For the Herbed Dressing:

  • â…“ cup olive oil
  • 1 tsp maple syrup or honey (optional) I did with both versions, and I liked without more
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • A handful of chopped fresh basil
  • A handful of fresh chopped oregano or dried if you don’t have a fresh one
  • Seasoning

How to assemble the salad?

What do you choose: dried or fresh herbs?

This is a good question for me, as well, because I don’t always have fresh herbs in my kitchen. So the best and quick option is to use dried herbs. Fresh ones have intenser aromas and beautiful bright flavor, making your dish taste more interesting. But, if I don’t have some fresh basil or oregano, I add dried spices.

For the vinaigrette: I did this salad twice, and on the second time, I have skipped honey. I liked it more. So keep in mind that Maple syrup or honey is an optional ingredient.
