Preparation Method
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large baking dish, combine the diced eggplants, zucchini, green bell peppers, and yellow onion.
- Drizzle the vegetables with olive oil and sprinkle with minced garlic, oregano leaves, thyme, salt, and pepper.
- Toss to coat evenly.
- Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until they are tender and slightly caramelized.
- While the vegetables are roasting, heat a small amount of olive oil in a pan over medium heat.
- Add the chickpeas and cook for 5-7 minutes until they are slightly crispy.
- Remove the roasted vegetables from the oven and add the diced Roma tomatoes and cooked chickpeas.
- Mix well.
- Return the dish to the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until the tomatoes are soft and the flavors are well combined.
- Remove from the oven and stir in the chopped basil leaves.
- Serve hot and enjoy your Ratatouille with added chickpeas for protein.
