Step 1
Toss chickpeas with 1 tbsp oil, salt, and black pepper on a sheet pan. Roast at 425°F for 12 minutes until edges are golden and crispy.
Step 2
While chickpeas roast, whisk together yogurt, tikka masala paste, coconut milk, and lime juice in a bowl until smooth.
Step 3
Heat 1 tbsp oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add red onion and cook until edges curl and char, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
Step 4
Remove chickpeas from oven. Pour yogurt sauce over hot chickpeas and toss gently to coat. Return to oven for 2 minutes to warm through.
Step 5
Divide rice between two bowls. Top each with half the sauced chickpeas, crispy onions, and fresh cilantro. Serve immediately.
