Smashed Chickpea Salad - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 (15 ounce) can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
    2 tablespoons pitted halved and very thinly sliced black olives
    1 tablespoon finely chopped red onion
    1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
    1/2 zest and lemon, juice of
    1 teaspoon salt
    3 grinds black pepper
    2 tablespoons olive oil
Preparation
    Mix everything but the olive oil in a small to midsize bowl. Very lightly smash the chickpea mixture with the back of a fork or a potato masher. You're not looking for a hummus-like puree but something closer to a coarse chop with a few smaller bits to hold it together. Add the glugs of olive oil, mix it lightly and enjoy.
