Spicy Chick Peas

Servings: 4

I made this the other night when I came home late from work craving chick peas, but without a lot of energy left at the end of a tough day. It's so good I thought others with eclectic tastes might enjoy it!
"Saute/fry" the onions and jalepenos in a little broth for about 5 min, till the onions begin to be tender. Add in the garlic and cook for about two more min, adding a little more broth if necessary. Add in the orange juice, lemon juice, vinegar, tomato sauce, ginger, and salt; bring to a simmer. Add in the chick peas and bring back to a simmer. Turn the heat down and cook, covered, for 20-30 more min for the flavors to blend well.
Serve warm or possibly at room temperature. Enjoy!
