large clove garlic, peeled and minced

1 teaspoon
Hungarian sweet paprika

3/4 cup
homemade or low-sodium chicken or vegetable broth

1
small diced tomato

Directions
-
Heat a large skillet to medium and add olive oil and onions. Cook for about five minutes, stirring occasionally.

Add the garlic and cook a few more minutes until the onions are soft.
-
Add the paprika, chicken or vegetable broth, diced tomatoes, red pepper flakes, and garbanzo beans. Cover and simmer about 15 minutes more, stirring occasionally. I also smashed some of the chickpeas with the back of my spatula to help thicken the broth.

Add the rice wine vinegar and lemon juice, mix it up a bit, and serve immediately.
