Ingredients for Corn and Chickpea Bowls With Miso Tahini

• 2 small jalapeños, seeded, chopped

• 1 (3/4-inch) piece ginger, peeled, finely grated

• 2 small garlic cloves, finely grated

• 1 cup (packed) coriander leaves with tender stems

• 80ml fresh lime juice

• 80ml tahini

• 1 tablespoon plus 1 1/2 teaspoons miso

• Kosher salt

• 45ml extra-virgin olive oil, divided, plus more for drizzling

• 2 garlic cloves, lightly crushed

• 1 (400g) can chickpeas rinsed, drained

• 3 ears of corn, shucked, kernels removed

• 1 tablespoon spice blend (such as za’atar, vadouvan, hawaij, or berbere)

• Kosher salt

• 4 cups tender greens (such as Little Gem lettuce and/or watercress), torn if large

• 2 avocados, cut into wedges

• 4 small tomatoes, cut into wedges

• Crumbled feta, coriander sprigs, and lime wedges (for serving)

Purée jalapeños, ginger, garlic, coriander, lime juice, tahini, miso, and 3 tablespoons water in a blender until smooth. Season with salt.

Do Ahead: Dressing can be made 1 day ahead. Transfer to an airtight container and chill.

Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium. Add garlic and cook, turning occasionally, until golden brown, about 4 minutes. Mash garlic with a spoon and stir into oil. Add chickpeas and increase heat to medium-high. Cook, undisturbed, until golden brown and beginning to crisp underneath, about 3 minutes. Toss and continue to cook, tossing occasionally, until golden brown all over, about 2 minutes more. Add corn and 1 tablespoon oil and cook, tossing, until corn kernels are golden around the edges and tender, 5–7 minutes. Sprinkle spice blend over and toss to coat. Season with salt.

Combine lettuce, avocados, and tomatoes in a large bowl. Drizzle lightly with oil and toss to combine. Season with salt.

Divide dressing among bowls and top with salad and chickpea mixture, then feta and some coriander. Serve with lime wedges for squeezing over.
