Ingredients:

Serving

1/4 large red onion , sliced wafer thin
2 tbsp (30 ml) red wine vinegar
salt
6 tbsp (90 ml) olive oil
a good pinch, about 1/8 tsp, red chili flakes (optional)
1-2 cloves garlic , sliced wafer thin
8 sundried tomatoes , julienned
2 cups (500 ml) chickpeas ( garbanzo beans)
1 tsp (15 ml) english mustard
freshly ground black pepper
approximately 1/2 cup (125 ml) of mixed herbs ; examples include parsely, lemon thyme , coriander/cilantro , basil , oregano and mint
5 oz (150 g) goats milk feta cheese

Directions:

In a small bowl, douse the red onion with the vinegar. Sprinkle over a good pinch of salt, then use your fingers to squish the mixture a bit - this will work the salt into the onions and expedite the breaking down of their acrid bite. Set aside.
In medium saucepan over medium-low heat, warm the olive oil, garlic and red chili flakes. If there is any sizzle at all, turn the heat to low. Once the oil is fragrant and the garlic turns translucent, turn off the heat. Add the sundried tomatoes and chickpeas at this point, allowing them to steep as the oil comes to room temperature. This step of bathing the chickpeas in the warm oil is wholly optiona, but I feel it imparts more flavour into the beans.
Once the oil has cooled, remove the tomatoes and chickpeas from the saucepan and put them into a large bowl (keep the oil, set it aside). Do the same with the onions, adding them to the salad but reserving the vinegar.
In that vinegar bowl, whisk in the mustard, salt and pepper. Whisking constantly, slowly drizzle in the steeped olive oil. Once the vinaigrette is emulsified and thick, coarsely chop the herbs and add to the bowl. Pour this dressing over the chickpeas and tomatoes. Toss to combine.
Crumble over the feta, then fold gently to distribute. Check for seasoning. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours for the flavours to combine. Can be served cold or at room temperature.
