Spanish Garbanzo Stew

Preparation

1. Step 1

   Heat the oil in a large soup pot. Add the onion and sauté over medium-low heat until translucent. Add the garlic and green pepper and continue to sauté until all are golden.

   Step 2

   Add the water, chickpeas, tomatoes, cumin, oregano, and thyme. Bring to a rapid simmer, then lower the heat. Cover and simmer gently for 20 minutes.

   Step 3

   Stir in the parsley and season sparingly with salt and generously with pepper. Adjust the consistency with more water as needed, but let the stew remain thick. Serve over a small amount of hot cooked rice, if desired.
