Add the chickpeas to the pan and drizzle everything with the oil. Sprinkle over the chili flakes and the salt and toss to combine. Place the pan in the hot oven and roast for 15 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and turn over the veggies and stir the chickpeas to recoat with the oil. Return the pan to the oven and roast for another 15 minutes. Remove from the oven again. The veggies should be fork-tender and the chickpeas crispy.
