Time 40m

Yield Makes 7 cups

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
5 cloves garlic, very thinly sliced (about 2 tablespoons)
Pinch of red-pepper flakes
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
2 cans (about 15 ounces each) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
4 cups chicken broth
1 cup water
Coarsely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves, for serving
Finely shredded Parmesan cheese, for serving
Toasts or bread, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a medium pot over medium heat. Add garlic and red-pepper flakes; season with salt and pepper. Cook until oil is infused and garlic is just beginning to color (do not let brown), 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer garlic chips to a plate.
  • Add chickpeas to oil in pot, increase heat to medium-high, and cook until heated through and creamy, about 5 minutes. Smash some of the chickpeas with a potato masher or the back of a wooden spoon. Add broth and water; simmer until thickened slightly, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Divide soup among 4 bowls. Top with parsley, Parmesan, and garlic chips. Drizzle with oil and serve immediately with toasts.

I'm allergic to chickpeas, so I used lentils instead. The soup turned out great!

The soup was too thick for my liking. I had to add some extra water to thin it out.

The soup was a little bland for my taste. I had to add some extra salt and pepper to make it more flavorful.

I'm not a fan of the parsley in this soup. I think it overpowers the other flavors.
