This substantial, flavor-filled chickpea “mash” requires just a handful of ingredients and comes together fast. Roughly smashing most of the canned chickpeas—and leaving the remainder whole—creates a chunky-creamy texture that’s hearty and satisfying. To brighten the chickpeas’ earthy flavors, we add a full bunch of scallions and both lemon zest and juice. Serve as a side dish to roasted or grilled meats or chicken, or make the mash into a meal with a dollop of plain yogurt, soft-cooked eggs and/or warmed pita bread.
