Here’s an A M A Z I N G chickpea chili that’s actually not as you would expect a typical chili to be. Simple put: it’s remarkable! It’s full of so many tasty flavors... from fresh red chili, garlic and turmeric to cumin, cinnamon, and paprika, and then if that not enough there’s plenty of extra tastiness from honey, tahini and soy sauce.
