In a large, heavy skillet heat a generous drizzle of oil over medium-high heat. Saute the onion and chickpeas for 5-8 minutes, until the onions are soft and the chickpeas are turning golden. Add the chili powder and cumin. If you want to take the edge off the garlic, add that too and cook for a minute or two.
