1. Place a rack within the middle of your oven and prewarmth the oven to 375 degrees F. Rinse and drain the chickpeas; lay them on a double stratum of paper towels and dried them as much as youll. Place the dried chickpeas to a baking sheet and drizzle with the olive oil. Strew with garlic powder, salt, and cayenne (supposing using). Blend to mix, then unfold in some even stratum . Prepare in oven for 30 to 40 mins bi till brown and crispy, shaking the pan as either twice throughout. put aside to cool.
2. Whereas the chickpeas are roasting, prepare the Caesar dressing . ( supposing can, either else gravy )
3. For the fastest probable shredding, slice the end of the down off of the brussels sprouts, then shred them employing a food processor slicing blade like one of these . As alternative, youll attentively chop the brussels sprouts with a mandoline , taking care to watch your fingers. I advised holding the stem, slicing from the top, and discarding the down stem. Supposing you Dont have a food processor either a mandoline, youll employ a sharp chef's knife: take away the stems and any wilted outer leaves, then chop the sprouts in very thin ribbons. For all methods: as the brussels sprouts are sliced, place the shreds in a bowl, then blend and fluff them with a fork either your fingers.
4. Add half of the chickpeas, two-thirds of the dressing, and Parmesan to the bowl. Blend to evenly moisten, then place a little extra dressing as desired. Taste and spice with black pepper as desired. Strew with the remaining chickpeas. submit instantly either refrigerate for up to 4 hours.

• This salad tastes even better supposing this sits for a several hours. Youll prepare this up to one day ahead for a party. I advised slightly moistening this with half the desired amount of dressing, then adding the remaining dressing right before submitting. I also advised storing the chickpeas separately and adding them simply before submitting so that they stay extra crisp.
• Make the chickpeas up to one day in advance. Keep in some airtight container at approximately 25 C.
• Leftover salad possibly stored within the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
