      Preheat the oven to 400 and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil.

      While the barley cooks, pat the chickpeas and broccoli dry with an old towel, then toss in a large bowl with the olive oil, salt, and chili flakes.

      Spread evenly on the prepared baking sheet and roast for 20 minutes, until the tips of the broccoli are caramelized and the chickpeas are shiny and slightly shriveled.
