2 cans chickpeas, drained and rinsed

1 red bell pepper, chopped
1 green bell pepper, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon grated ginger
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon turmeric

1 teaspoon garam masala
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 can chopped tomatoes
1/2 cup water
Juice of 1 lemon

Instructions:
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add the red and green bell peppers to the skillet and sauté for an additional 5 minutes, until the peppers are tender.
Add the garlic and ginger to the skillet and sauté for 1 minute, until fragrant.
Add the coriander, cumin, turmeric, smoked paprika, garam masala, chili powder, and salt to the skillet and sauté for 1 minute, until fragrant.
Add the chopped tomatoes and water to the skillet and stir to combine. Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add the chickpeas to the skillet and stir to combine. Let the mixture simmer for an additional 10-15 minutes, until the sauce has thickened and the chickpeas are heated through.
