  1. Cook Pasta
    1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and add the small pasta shells. Cook until just al dente according to package directions.
    12 oz small pasta shells, 1 tsp salt
  2. 2. Reserve a cup of the starchy cooking water, then drain the pasta and set aside.
  3. Make Sauce
    3. While the pasta cooks, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook, stirring often, until fragrant but not browned, about 1 minute.
    4 clove garlic, 0.2 cup olive oil
  4. 4. Add the cherry tomatoes to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until they begin to blister and release their juices, 5 to 7 minutes.
    2 cup cherry tomatoes
  5. 5. Stir in the chickpeas, salt, and black pepper, and cook until the chickpeas are warmed through and coated in the tomato-garlic oil, about 3 minutes.
    1.5 cup canned chickpeas (drained and rinsed), 1 tsp salt, 0.5 tsp black pepper
  6. Finish Pasta
    6. Add the drained pasta shells to the skillet and toss well with the chickpea tomato mixture. Splash in a little reserved pasta water as needed to create a glossy, lightly saucy coating. Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and black pepper if desired, then serve hot.
    12 oz small pasta shells, 1.5 cup canned chickpeas (drained and rinsed), 2 cup cherry tomatoes, 0.2 cup olive oil, 1 tsp salt, 0.5 tsp black pepper
