Herb Salad With Chickpeas And Feta

• 2 lemons
• 1 can chickpeas, drained and well dried
• 3/4 cup olive oil
• Salt and pepper
• 8 ounces feta, broken into large chunks
• 2 dried chiles de arbol, smashed
• 2 cloves garlic, smashed
• 3 cups mixed soft herbs (such as mint, parsley, chives, cilantro, tarragon, and/or dill)

1. Heat the oven to 400u0b0F. Cut one of the lemons into thin half moons, and set the other aside.
2. Toss the lemon slices and chickpeas with 3 tablespoons olive oil on a rimmed baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper, then spread everything out on the sheet. Bake, shaking the pan once, until the chickpeas are starting to crisp and the lemons are caramelized, about 25 minutes.
3. Meanwhile, add the feta to a tall jar, along with the chiles and garlic. Add the chickpeas, lemon, and any oil from the baking sheet, then add juice from half the remaining lemon. Warm the rest of the olive oil, then add enough to cover the feta completely.
4. Let marinate for at least 20 minutes, or up to 5 days (refrigerate if marinating for more than a few hours; bring to room temperature before using).
5. When ready to eat, toss the herbs in a large bowl with salt, pepper, and the juice from the remaining lemon half. Add enough of the oil from the jar of feta and chickpeas to evenly dress the herbs (about 3 tablespoons, but taste to confirm). Divide the herbs among your plates, then top with feta, chickpeas, and, if you like, lemon slices. Eat at once.
