  5. Pour the pesto into a container and set aside. It keeps in the fridge for up to a couple of weeks.

  8. Add the chickpeas, season with salt and pepper, and sauté for 2-3 minutes.
  9. When the pasta is cooked, transfer it to the pan and add 1/4 cup of pasta water.
  10. Add 4-5 tbsp of the pesto, turn off the heat, toss well, then plate. Sprinkle with gochugaru and serve.
