Step 1
Prick potatoes all over with a fork. Microwave on high for 10 minutes, turning halfway through, until flesh is tender when pierced.
Step 2
While potatoes cook, toss chickpeas with 1 tbsp olive oil and salt. Spread on a small sheet pan and roast at 425°F for 6 minutes until edges crisp.
Step 3
Split each potato lengthwise. Fluff the insides with a fork and season with salt and pepper.
Step 4
Top each potato half with a handful of shredded cheese, then dollop with 3 tbsp yogurt per half.
Step 5
Scatter crispy chickpeas and fresh herbs over each potato. Finish with a pinch of chili flakes or sumac.
Step 6
Serve immediately while potatoes are still hot and cheese is melted.
