Instruções

Chickpeas

In a medium bowl, toss chickpeas, soy sauce, vinegar, and sriracha. Let sit 10 minutes, then drain and reserve liquid. Add cornstarch to chickpeas and toss to coat.

Sauce

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk garlic, broth, vinegar, brown sugar, ginger, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, and sesame oil; set aside until ready to use.

Stir-Fry

In a large skillet over medium heat, heat peanut oil. Fry chickpeas, stirring occasionally, until golden and crispy, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer chickpeas to a plate; reserve oil in skillet.

Return skillet to medium heat. Cook red chile (if using), garlic, and red pepper flakes, stirring occasionally, until chile is lightly toasted, about 1 minute.

Slowly add sauce to skillet and stir until slightly thickened, 1 to 2 minutes. Return chickpeas to skillet and stir until coated in sauce. Remove from heat.

Divide rice among bowls. Spoon chickpea mixture over. Top with sesame seeds and scallions.
