Cooking Steps
- Drain and rinse chickpeas, then pat dry with paper towels. Remove any skins that may have fallen off.
- To a parchment-lined baking sheet, add chickpeas, Dill-Garlic Spice Blend, half the Zesty Garlic Spice Blend, 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp sugar) and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil. Season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat.
- Roast chickpeas in the top of the oven for 22-25 min, stirring halfway through, until golden and crispy.
- While chickpeas roast, to a medium pot, add 6 cups water and 1 tsp salt to a medium pot (use same for 4 servings). Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.
- Meanwhile, peel, then cut sweet potato into 1/4-inch pieces.
- Halve zucchini lengthwise, then cut into 1/2-inch half-moons.
- To an unlined baking sheet, add sweet potato, zucchini, remaining Zesty Garlic Blend and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil. (NOTE: For 4 servings, use 2 baking sheets, with 1 tbsp oil per sheet.) Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat.
- Roast in the middle of the oven for 16-18 min, stirring halfway through, until tender and golden. (NOTE: For 4 servings, roast in the middle and bottom of the oven, switching baking sheet positions halfway through.)
- To the boiling water, add couscous. Cook uncovered for 8-10 min, stirring occasionally, until tender.
- Meanwhile, zest, then juice half the lemon. Cut remaining lemon into wedges.
- Roughly chop parsley.
- To a small bowl, add tahini sauce, mayo, and 1 tsp (2 tsp) lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper. Stir to combine.
- Strain couscous, then return to the pot, off heat.
- Add garlic spread, lemon zest and half the parsley. Season with salt and pepper. Stir for 30 sec, until garlic spread melts.
- Add roasted veggies. Stir to combine.
- Divide couscous between bowls.
- Top with crispy chickpeas.
- Drizzle with lemon-tahini sauce.
- Sprinkle feta and remaining parsley over top.
- Squeeze a wedge of lemon over top, if you like.

Review summary
Updated on Feb 2026- Flavor: Many enjoyed the delicious and unique flavors, with some finding it a bit bland; adding harissa boosted depth for some.
- Ease of prep: While tasty, several noted it was time-consuming to prepare, especially peeling chickpeas and chopping vegetables.
- Suggestions: Consider air frying chickpeas for crispiness; some preferred regular couscous or rice over pearl couscous.
- Portions: Some found it very filling, while others felt it needed more vegetables or protein.
- Texture: Roasting chickpeas longer can improve crunchiness; some found the dish too starchy with both couscous and sweet potatoes.
