Ingredients
  

  • ¼ cup loosely packed Italian parsley
  • 1 small garlic clove
  • ¼ - ½ a fresh jalapeno
  • ½ 19 oz can chickpeas rinsed and drained
  • 1 tablespoon tahini I used sesame oil because I was out of tahini - a stretch but it worked
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • cup water
  • ¼ teaspoon cumin
  • cup extra virgin olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Chop the parsley for 5 seconds; remove and reserve (seemed a little unnecessary). Add garlic and finely chop for about 5 seconds. Add chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, water, cumin, jalapeno, and reserved parsley to work bowl; process until smooth for about 1.5 to 2 minutes, stopping to scrape work bowl as needed once or twice. With the machine running, add the olive oil in a steady stream and process until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  • Taste and season with salt and pepper as desired.
