1 (15-ounce) can chickpeas, rinsed and drained

3 Tbsp. chopped parsley
1 large clove garlic, chopped
Finely grated zest of 1 lemon
1 ½ Tbsp. lemon juice
½ tsp. ground cumin
½ tsp. sea salt
¼ tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
3 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
3 Tbsp. tahini
2 cups very thinly sliced radicchio, from 1-2 heads
Toasted pine nuts or slivered almonds, for garnish

Directions:

1. Place chickpeas in a skillet with enough water to cover and bring to a simmer over low heat. When heated through, about 4 minutes, drain and set aside.
2. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine scallions, parsley, garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, cumin, salt, and red pepper flakes. Whisk in olive oil and tahini. Add chickpeas and toss to coat.
