Instructions

Step 1

In a food processor add the chickpeas, the jalapeno, the olive oil, the lemon juice, garlic powder, pepper, and begin processing. Add some water, start by adding 1 tablespoon at a time until you reach the consistency you like. I added a total of 5 tablespoons of water. NOTE: If you like super spicy food you can leave the seeds in the jalapeno.

Step 2

Slowly add the cilantro and process for a little bit more.

Step 3

Check if the consistency is what you like, otherwise you may add more water. Start by adding 1 tablespoon of water at a time until the consistency is perfect for you. Taste it, and add a little bit more of garlic powder, salt or pepper if you feel you need more.
