1-tablespoon sugar

½ cup red onion, diced

Directions:

Place chickpeas and 6 cups of water in a pot and bring to a boil. Boil for 2 minutes, turn off heat, cover and let stand for 1 hour. Keep beans covered and cook over low to medium heat for about 1-½ hours or until desired tenderness is reached, drain and set aside.

Separate the butter lettuce leaves. Wash and dry them gently; set aside.
