Millet, a gluten-free whole grain, is the base for this warming vegan main course; quinoa works just as well. Cumin and cayenne work in tandem to add a savoury, spicy, anticancer edge to the meal.
To make this a more substantial main course, serve with a poached organic egg or other protein of choice.
Per serving:
Preheat oven to 400 F (200 C).
Heat 1 Tbsp (15 mL) oil in medium saucepan over medium heat. Add millet or quinoa and cumin seeds; toast for 1 minute, or until fragrant. Add broth. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook for 25 minutes (millet) or 15 minutes (quinoa). Remove from heat and steam, covered, for 5 minutes. Fluff with fork and stir in parsley. Transfer to serving platter. Meanwhile, roast chickpeas.
On large rimmed baking sheet, toss chickpeas with remaining 1 Tbsp (15 mL) oil, cumin, cayenne, and salt. Bake for 20 to 30 minutes, until crispy (a few may pop). Scatter chickpeas over millet and sprinkle with pistachios. Serve warm, at room temperature, or chilled with lemon wedges.
