Chickpea and Chorizo Tostadas

Method
Rinse and drain 15 oz. chickpeas in a colander. Measure out ½ cup; reserve remaining chickpeas for another use.
Finely grate zest of 1 lime with a microplane or grater into a small bowl.
Cut lime in half and squeeze juice from one half into bowl with zest. Cut remaining half into 2 wedges; set aside for serving.
