Rinse and drain the chickpeas. Remove the skins of the chickpeas by patting/rolling them in a napkin. Most of them will naturally come off.
Add chickpeas and 1/2 tsp salt to a pot with boiling water. Reduce to a simmer and cook on med-high heat for about 12 minutes until chickpeas are soft and almost falling apart. Drain and allow to cool.
Add all the ingredients except water to a food processor and blend until smooth and creamy, scraping down the edges with a spoon if needed.
Add water slowly as needed to blend and until desired consistency is reached.
Transfer to a serving dish, and top with paprika, cilantro, olive oil and extra chickpeas. Serve with pita, veggies, crackers, as desired!
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one week.
